Fettuccine Alfredo

This one has loads of butter and cheese, which is why I only make it a few times a year.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter or margarine
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pint heavy cream
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 box Fettuccine pasta
1/2 pound chicken, cooked and chunked


1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.

2. Add the garlic, cream, pepper, and bring to a simmer. Turn heat on low if it starts to boil.

3. Add cheese and continue to simmer for 8 minutes or until thick, and the cheese is all melted, stirring constantly. Grating a fresh block of Parmesan cheese is always better, but is also more time consuming.

4. As the sauce cooks, cook fettuccine as per package instructions. I always snap Fettuccine in half before boiling for easier cooking and eating.

5. Add chicken to the sauce and let it sit for about 5 minutes to absorb the flavor.

6. Pour Alfredo sauce onto noodles. Top with parmesan cheese.
