Ingredients

• 12 oz Fettuccine pasta
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 0.5 tsp Red pepper flakes
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 4 quarts Water
• 2 tbsp Kosher salt (for pasta water)

Directions

Step 1

Bring 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil in a large pot. Add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt to the water, then cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn.

Step 3

Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and release their juices.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, then add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, and half of the fresh basil. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 5

Season the sauce with 0.5 teaspoons of salt, 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper, and 0.5 teaspoons of red pepper flakes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 6

Toss the cooked fettuccine in the skillet with the sauce, adding reserved pasta water a few tablespoons at a time until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

Step 7

Plate the fettuccine and garnish with the remaining fresh basil. Optionally, sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese and a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Fettuccine a La Ferrari!
