10 Minute Fettucine Alfredo

This is hardly a recipe. Hot pasta with lots of butter and cheese makes the most delicious sauce. 

Ingredients

• 1 9 ounce package fresh fettuccine

• 1 stick butter, diced

• 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccini until tender, 2-3 minutes. Drain and reserve about 1/4 cup of pasta water.

2. Place hot pasta in a bowl, add the butter, parmesan cheese and toss until butter and cheese have melted. Add the pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
