Instructions
Creating delicious Mushroom Alfredo is easy when you follow these simple steps:
1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Onions: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil together. Once melted, add sliced onions and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add Garlic and Mushrooms: Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are browned and their moisture has evaporated.
4. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
5. Incorporate Cheese: Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
6. Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the drained fettuccine to the sauce, tossing until all the noodles are well-coated in the creamy mixture.
7. Season to Taste: Season with salt and pepper as needed, adjusting to your flavor preference.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
These steps ensure your Mushroom Alfredo is not only simple to create, but incredibly satisfying too!
