Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 whole Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Using a spiralizer, turn the zucchini into noodles (zoodles) and set them aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring continuously.
Once the cream is simmering, reduce the heat to low and gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss them gently in the sauce, cooking for about 3-4 minutes, until the zoodles are tender but not overly soft.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the pasta.
Serve the creamy garlic Parmesan pasta immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
