Ingredients

• 12 oz gluten-free fettuccine
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)
• Extra grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)

Instructions

1. In a large pot, cook the gluten-free fettuccine according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
3. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes until it begins to simmer.
4. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
5. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
6. Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing to coat the pasta evenly.
7. Serve the fettuccine Alfredo hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

Helpful Tips:

• For a lighter version, you can use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
• If you’re lactose intolerant, use lactose-free cream and Parmesan cheese.
• Make sure to cook the gluten-free pasta al dente as it can become mushy if overcooked.
• Add grilled chicken or shrimp for a protein boost, making the meal even heartier.

Storage Instructions:

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a saucepan over low heat, adding a splash of cream to loosen the sauce if necessary.

Complementary Dishes and Drinks:

This gluten-free fettuccine Alfredo pairs wonderfully with a fresh, crisp green salad and some gluten-free garlic bread. For drinks, a sparkling water with lemon or a light white wine would enhance the flavors beautifully.
