Description
Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato and Spinach Fettuccine
Ingredients
12 oz fettuccine pasta
2 tbsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced
2 cups fresh spinach
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water before draining.
Sauté Garlic and Tomatoes: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes, cooking for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
Add Spinach: Toss in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Make the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine with Pasta: Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, stir in the reserved pasta water, a little at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
Season and Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with additional Parmesan if desired and serve hot!
