Ingredients

• 12 ounces Fettuccine pasta
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1.5 cups Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 tablespoon Parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 3

Pour in the heavy cream and stir well to combine. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cream is heated through but not boiling.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, one small handful at a time. Stir continuously to ensure the cheese melts smoothly and the sauce becomes creamy.

Step 5

Season the Alfredo sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet. Toss the pasta gently to coat evenly in the Alfredo sauce.

Step 7

Remove from heat and transfer the Alfredo fettuccine to serving plates. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a touch of color and extra flavor, if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your homemade Alfredo Fettuccine a La Olive Garden!
