Ingredients
The following ingredients have 1 Servings
- 2 ounces fettuccine noodles
- 1 tablespoon (14g) butter
- ⅓ cup half and half, milk, or heavy cream (*)
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of dried parsley ((optional))
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of pepper
- Pinch of cayenne pepper ((optional))
- ½ ounce (2 Tbs to 1/4 cup )* shredded parmesan cheese (for the smoothest sauce, use freshly grated parmesan)
Instruction
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- When your pasta is nearly finished cooking, in a small pot, melt butter. Stir in half and half/milk/cream, garlic powder, optional dried parsley, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Heat until steaming, just before it's ready to simmer. Turn heat to low and stir in parmesan.
- Continue to stir over low heat until parmesan is completely melted into the sauce. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Pour sauce over drained fettuccine noodles and toss. Allow the pasta to sit for 5 minutes to cool and sauce to thicken slightly.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and enjoy!
