My favorite quick and easy Alfredo Sauce recipe

This is a recipe from Tyler Florence on the Food Network.  It's honestly super easy.  My friend who loves alfredo sauce raved about it!

I recommend giving it a try!

Below is the recipe from the Food Network.  I always add a little something of my own to every recipe, and this one is no different.  I added a little fresh garlic to the dish.  I grate the garlic (less than a full clove) into the saucepan right after I add in the cheese.  It gives it a little extra flavor!

Alfredo Sauce:

  • 1 pint heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
To prepare alfredo sauce: Heat heavy cream over low-medium heat in a deep saute pan. Add butter and whisk gently to melt. Sprinkle in cheese and stir to incorporate. Season with freshly cracked black pepper. In a large stockpot, cook pasta in plenty of boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Quickly drain the pasta and add it to the saute pan, gently toss the noodles to coat in the alfredo. Transfer pasta to a warm serving bowl. Top with more grated cheese and chopped parsley. Serve immediately
