Creamy FETTUCCINE ALFREDO Pasta | Creamy Alfredo Sauce Recipe

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: Nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: Pecorino Romano

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor

Pulse 3 ounces of Parmesan cheese in a food processor to grate it.

Preheat a pan over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.

Add 1 minced clove of garlic and sauté briefly.

Add a little onion powder (optional) and mix to warm through.

Pour in 2.5 cups of heavy cream and let it gently simmer without boiling.

Add 0.5 cup of grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce and mix until almost melted.

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt.

Reserve pasta water for later use if the sauce thickens too much.

Prepare 4 chicken breasts by rinsing and patting dry, then add 1.5 tablespoons of cooking oil and season with lemon pepper, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and Montreal chicken seasoning.

Place the seasoned chicken breasts in a large air fryer and cook at 400°F for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes.

Boil 1 pound of fettuccine in a 5-quart pot with at least 1 tablespoon of salt for about 10 minutes until desired doneness.

Reserve some pasta water, then drain the fettuccine.

Add the drained pasta to the sauce and mix to coat, adding reserved pasta water if needed.
