FETTUCCINE ALFREDO SAUCE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Melt butter in large saute pan.
• Add garlic and onions, saute until brown.
• Add broth and cream and reduce for several minutes.
• Slowly add the cornstarch/water mixture stirring until the sauce begins to thicken slightly.
• Do not over thicken as the parmesean cheese will also act as a thickener.
• Add the parmesan cheese, parsley, and salt & pepper.
• Taste test and add more seasoning if needed.
• Combine with fettuccini noodles and toss.
• Serve immediately in warm bowl.

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook until the garlic is slightly soft, about 1 minute. Add in the flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, whisking constantly, until just thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the Neufchâtel and parmesan cheese; whisk until melted, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped parsley. 
•  Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and return to the pot. Add the sauce and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water to the pasta and gently toss to combine, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt. Divide among bowls and top with parmesan and pepper.
