Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces gluten-free fettuccine noodles
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add the gluten-free fettuccine noodles to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
While the noodles are cooking, melt the unsalted butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, stir in the salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Drain the cooked noodles, reserving half a cup of pasta water.
Add the drained noodles to the butter mixture in the pan and toss to coat the noodles evenly. If the noodles seem too dry, add a few tablespoons of reserved pasta water until reaching the desired consistency.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until the cheese is melted and noodles are well coated in a creamy sauce.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top of the noodles.
Serve the gluten-free buttered noodles immediately, with additional Parmesan cheese on the side if desired.
