Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter
- 10 leaves fresh sage leaves
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, typically 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the fresh sage leaves and sauté for 1–2 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly crispy. Remove the sage leaves from the skillet and set them aside on a paper towel to drain.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt slowly, stirring occasionally, until it becomes golden and begins to smell nutty, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the browned butter. Toss to coat the noodles thoroughly in the butter.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the noodles and continue to toss until the cheese is evenly distributed and melted.
Season the noodles with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Crumble the crispy sage leaves over the noodles as a garnish.
Serve immediately, and enjoy warm.
