Olive Garden Fettuccine Alfredo Pasta and Sauce

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup butter
• 2 garlic (Minced)
• 2 cup heavy cream
• 0.125 tsp ground black pepper
• salt (Pinch)
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 12 oz fettuccine pasta (Or your choice of pasta)

Steps

1. 1

   Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.

2. 2

   Add the minced garlic, heavy cream, ground black pepper, and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer. If it reaches a rapid boil, reduce the heat so it does not boil over; maintain a gentle simmer.

3. 3

   Add the grated Parmesan cheese and continue simmering the sauce for about 8 minutes, or until it has thickened.

4. 4

   While the sauce cooks, bring 4 to 6 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot.

5. 5

   Add the fettuccine pasta to the boiling water and cook for about 12 minutes, or until done. Drain the pasta.

6. 6

   Spoon the pasta onto serving plates and pour the Alfredo sauce over the top.

Notes

The source cautions against turning the heat up too high while simmering the sauce, because it can break and become curdled rather than creamy. Recipe source: Top Secret Restaurant Recipes by Todd Wilbur.
