Smoked salmon Alfredo

Ingredients:

8 oz smoked salmon, sliced

8 oz fettuccine pasta

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions:

Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set aside.

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Allow the cream to simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the cream sauce, stirring continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Add the smoked salmon slices to the sauce, gently folding them in. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the salmon is warmed through.

Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the skillet, tossing it in the sauce until well-coated. Cook for another minute to ensure the pasta is heated.

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top.

Serve the Smoked Salmon Alfredo immediately while it’s still warm. You can garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
