Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 fresh sage leaves
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 pound mixed wild mushrooms, sliced
1 pound fresh fettuccine
1 cup frozen peas (no need to defrost)
1 cup chicken stock
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp
3 cups grated Pecorino Romano cheese
2 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • For the pasta: In a large pan with sides and a lid, add the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sage and fry until just crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with a tiny pinch of salt.
  • Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring, until wilted and darkened, 5 to 8 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add the pasta, peas and chicken stock. Cook, stirring and tossing, until all the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • For the 1-2-3 alfredo sauce: Add the garlic to the pan and toss, then add the cheese and heavy cream. Stir to coat everything, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook, covered, until the sauce has combined and thickened slightly, about 8 minutes.
  • Top each portion with a fried sage leaf.
