Alfredo Sauce Recipe - Food.com image

This is my son's favorite meal. I make it with shrimp for him for his birthday every year. GREAT for company because it is so easy and yet taste wonderful! I cook this in the microwave, but I'm sure you could do it on the stove too. Times are what work in my microwave. Please use your own good judgment on times to use in your microwave. (In my quest to eat healthier, I now make it with light butter, light cream and reduced fat Parmesan cheese. It still tastes wonderful, but there isn't any guilt!) PLEASE NOTE! This is an "authentic" Alfredo sauce recipe! Real Alfredo sauce only contains butter, cream, Parmesan cheese and pepper. It will be thin and there is no garlic in it! If you want a thicker sauce or one with garlic like modern restaurants serve, please look elsewhere! Recipe #52892 and Recipe #8596 are two good places to start.

Total Time 15 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1/4 lb sweet butter (1/2 cup, light butter works fine!)
1 cup heavy cream or 1 cup light cream
3/4 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

Place butter in microwave safe pot and heat on high for 30 seconds or until melted.
Add cream and warm on high for approximately 1 minute.
Add Parmesan cheese and warm until cheese melts.
Add salt and pepper to taste. (If serving with shrimp, you might not need much salt.).
Pour over 4 servings of warm noodles (I use angel hair) and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
Notes: I serve it with cubed, grilled or broiled chicken breast mixed in with the noodles or shrimp. Add a green salad and you have a complete meal. I have used margarine and canned Parmesan cheese and it worked fine.

ALFREDO SAUCE RECIPE | REAL SIMPLE

Rich, creamy Alfredo sauce is one of those little kitchen miracles: a luxurious dish that tastes decadent but comes together in mere minutes. Invented in Rome during the 1920s, it’s no surprise that this Italian classic—which requires only simple, everyday ingredients—quickly became an American staple. While Alfredo sauce is most traditionally tossed with a long tender pasta, like fettuccine, it can also serve as a versatile and easy way to add a bit of creaminess to any number of dishes. Try it drizzled over pizza in place of tomato sauce, baked into a comforting lasagna or fall casserole, or even spooned over a rustic dish of roasted vegetables. Because the recipe is so simple, all of the ingredients should be chosen with care—especially the cheese. If you can afford to, splurge for a block of full-flavored imported Parmigiano-Reggiano. And remember: pre-grated Parmesan will never yield the same depth and freshness as the hand-grated version—so this is one instance where a few minutes of extra labor yields a big payoff.
