Ingredients

3/4 pound fettuccine

2/3 cup heavy cream

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

Pinch of salt

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

 

Directions

    Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain.

    Meanwhile, bring the cream, butter, pepper and salt to a boil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce begins to thicken, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1/4 cup of the cheese until melted and smooth. Add the pasta and parsley, tossing until the pasta is well coated. Serve at once sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
