It's tough to beat pasta for a quick dinner. This pasta with half and half, butter and parmesan doesn't mess around. Use good quality parmesan and prepare to indulge!
10 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
8 ounces half and half
1 ounce butter
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
black pepper, to taste
Heat a large pan of water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook over medium-high heat until not quite al dente. Drain the water and return the pasta to the pan.
Add the half and half and butter to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook until the pasta is tender, about 4-5 more minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the Parmesan cheese. Mix well. Sprinkle with black pepper, to taste. Serve hot.
