1
Cook the Fettuccine
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2
Prepare the Alfredo Sauce
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3
Add Cream and Cheese
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
4
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the Alfredo sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water to reach desired consistency.
5
Serve
Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley and additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
