We recently had some friends over for dinner and Chef Jeff made a delicious chicken alfredo pasta dish. My friend asked for the recipe for the alfredo sauce. It is NOT a low fat sauce, but it is delicious!
Ingredients- 1/4 pound butter
- 1 cup cream
- 3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- salt
- pepper
Directions- Melt butter in saucepan
- Add cream
- Add cheese
- Add salt and pepper to taste
- Stir until smooth
It's delicious over pasta (for a meatless dish) or with cubed chicken!
well to be honest i always wondered what made an alfredo sauce different from a plain white sauce. more fat, i guess, is the answer. mmmm.
ReplyDeleteAdd diced green chili's to your sauce and top with roasted pinon nuts for a New Mexican twist to your yummy meal!
ReplyDeleteI like that idea Dixie! Will try! I always make a white sauce and use it as an Alfredo sauce. Not much difference...I think Melissa Marie may be right about the amount of cream vs. milk.
