Simple Fettuccine Alfredo

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the noodles according to package instructions. Reserve about ½ cup of the pasta water. Drain the noodles and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and pepper and cook for 1-2 minutes.
3. Whisk in the cream.
4. Add the remaining 7 Tbsp butter (slice before adding) and stir to melt and combine. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
5. Add the parmesan and stir until melted.
6. Add the noodles and toss to coat.
7. Add the reserved pasta water, ¼ cup at a time, and stir to incorporate and thin the sauce. Continue to cook for about 1 minute so all ingredients can warm through.
8. Portion the pasta between bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve and enjoy!
