@kellysdailyrecipes: Creamy Garlic Parmesan Alfredo Pasta A rich, velvety pasta dish tossed in a homemade garlic cream sauce with butter, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and a touch of black pepper. This comforting recipe is smooth, flavorful, and perfect for a restaurant-style meal at home. Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes Servings: 2–3 people Ingredients 250 g fettuccine or linguine pasta 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 3–4 garlic cloves, finely minced 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream ¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Salt, to taste ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional) 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped ¼–½ cup reserved pasta water, as needed Instructions 1. Cook the Pasta Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain. 2. Sauté the Garlic Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds until fragrant. Do not let the garlic turn brown. 3. Prepare the Cream Sauce Pour in the heavy cream and stir gently. Let it simmer over low heat for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened. Avoid boiling vigorously. 4. Add the Parmesan Cheese Reduce the heat to low. Gradually add the freshly grated Parmesan, stirring continuously until melted and smooth. Season with black pepper, salt, and Italian seasoning if desired. 5. Toss the Pasta Add the drained pasta to the skillet. Toss thoroughly until every strand is coated in the creamy sauce. Add reserved pasta water a little at a time until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. 6. Garnish and Serve Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley and extra Parmesan cheese over the pasta. Serve immediately while hot, creamy, and delicious. Chef's Tips Use freshly grated Parmesan for a smoother sauce. Keep the heat low when adding cheese to prevent the sauce from becoming grainy. Add pasta water gradually to help the sauce cling to the noodles. For extra flavor, add cooked chicken or sautéed mushrooms. Serving Suggestion: Serve warm with garlic bread and a fresh green salad for a delicious Italian-inspired meal. Hashtags #CreamyPasta #AlfredoPasta #GarlicParmesan #PastaLovers #FoodTok
