Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick butter we love Kerrygold butter for extra flavor and nutritional benefits
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 pound pasta whatever pasta you like: homemade fettucine noodles, organic short pasta, etc.
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • parsley for garnish optional

Equipment

  • cast iron skillet

Method
 

  1. While your pasta is cooking, melt 1 stick of butter in a cast iron skillet.
  2. Cook pasta accordingly and drain.
  3. Add freshly drained pasta to cast iron skillet with butter, and add cream and Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted.
  4. Add salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with freshly chopped or dried parsley.

Notes

Usually I like to add grilled or rotisserie style chicken to our pasta alfredo, but chopped bacon is also delicious! 
Be sure not to allow the pasta to cook too much after you've added all of the ingredients as it will start to harden and get too thick. 
ENJOY!
