This Olive Garden Alfredo sauce is better than the famous Italian restaurant chain’s version. Alfredo sauce has always had my heart, whether chicken Alfredo or fettuccine Alfredo. This is a simple and basic recipe for Italian starters. Sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley over your plate for an added touch. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons sweet butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ¾ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 (12 ounce) package angel hair pasta
Directions
Step 1
Melt butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add cream, garlic, and white pepper; bring to just under a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, until mixture is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir Parmesan cheese into cream mixture; simmer until sauce is thickened and smooth, 8 to 10 minutes. Add mozzarella cheese; cook and stir until melted, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta; cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 4
Drain and transfer pasta to serving plates. Spoon sauce over pasta.
Cook?s Note
If you have a rotisserie chicken just waiting to be used, I suggest cutting some of the breast meat into bite-size pieces and stirring them into the finished sauce. This could take your dish to the next level.
