Ingredients

• 12 ounces Fettuccine pasta
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1.5 cups Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Step 2

Add the fettuccine pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining the pasta.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 5

Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir to combine with the butter.

Step 6

Let the cream and butter mixture heat through for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Gradually add the freshly grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, stirring constantly until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Season the sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 9

Add the drained fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the Alfredo sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a small amount of the reserved pasta water, a tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the fettuccine Alfredo to serving plates.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
