Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Tofu shirataki fettuccini noodles
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the tofu shirataki fettuccini noodles under cool running water for 1-2 minutes. Drain well and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a large nonstick skillet, dry fry the noodles over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to remove any remaining water and reduce their natural odor. Set the noodles aside.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Using the same skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and cream cheese. Whisk constantly until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
Season the Alfredo sauce with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using), stirring to combine.
Add the cooked tofu shirataki noodles to the skillet and toss them with the Alfredo sauce until evenly coated and warmed through, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve the Tofu Shirataki Fettuccini Alfredo immediately. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and extra Parmesan cheese on top.
