Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free fettuccine or spaghetti
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 3 oz Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 tsp Black truffle oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and set it aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil and butter until melted and shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to brown the garlic.
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir gently and allow it to warm up, but avoid boiling. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce becomes creamy and smooth.
Add the black truffle oil, salt, and black pepper to the sauce, stirring well to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss gently to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta cooking water to loosen it.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, tossing frequently, until the pasta is heated through and fully coated with the sauce.
Divide the truffle pasta among plates and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
