Olive Garden Alfredo Pasta

(from grandmaD’s recipe box)

This recipe is very similar to the Olive Garden version. It’s good, but not the healthiest so it’s definitely not in my regular rotation.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
  • Pinch of slat
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 12 oz. box fettuccine pasta

Directions

  1. Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium/low heat

  2. Add the garlic, cream, pepper, and salt. Bring mixture to a simmer. Turn the heat down if the mixture reaches a rapid boil or could boil over. You just want a simmer. Add the cheese, and continue to simmer sauce for 8 minutes or until thick.

  3. While sauce cooks, bring 4 to 6 quarts of water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook pasta for about 12 minutes or until done, drain it.
