Preheat oven to 400°F. In a baking dish, toss the 1 lb shrimp and 1 cup cherry tomatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 tsp salt. Spread in an even layer.

Bake for 8-10 minutes until shrimp are pink and opaque and tomatoes start to blister.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat 1 cup heavy cream and 3 minced garlic cloves over medium until steaming, about 3 minutes. Do not boil.

Pour the warm cream mixture over the baked shrimp and tomatoes. Stir gently to combine.
