Best Fettucine Alfredo With Vegetables Recipes

SPRING VEGETABLE FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente, tender but slightly firm. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then strain the pasta and toss with a splash of oil in the colander.
• Meanwhile, slice the mushroom caps into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and cut into 2-inch lengths. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high and add the mushrooms in 1 layer. Cook, without moving, until the undersides have browned, 1 to 2 minutes, then stir and cook until golden about 2 minutes more. Add the asparagus, another tablespoon of butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until the asparagus is tender and the mushrooms are browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the colander with the pasta.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 5 tablespoons butter. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and bring to a simmer, then add the peas and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the vegetables, cooked pasta, chives and lemon zest and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta will thicken as it cools. To thin it, add reserved pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time and toss to reach the desired consistency. Serve hot in heated bowls.

FETTUCINE ALFREDO WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Cook noodles according to package directions, or if you're inclined to do so, make your own. Prepare fresh broccoli to be cooked. I always leave mine somewhat firm. When noodles are done drain well.
• Prepare your other veggies...dice tomato neatly and chop up green onion. If using fresh garlic, chop that up too.
• For the sauce, melt butter/margarine first. I use Best Life buttery spread as it has no trans fat or hydrogenated oils. Then add in cream cheese and garlic. Keep heat on low to medium and stir constantly unless it will burn. Add in sour cream and milk and wait until everything is well melted together before adding cheese. Once cheese is thoroughly melted, add in pepper to taste and a splash of lemon. Serve immediately.
• Pile noodles on plate or in bowl...toss on broccoli and then cover with sauce. Sprinkle diced tomato and green onion on top. Squeeze a bit of lemon juice on and garnish with cheese. Yum!
