Creamy Mushroom and Spinach Fettuccine
Ingredients:
12 oz fettuccine pasta
2 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 cups fresh spinach
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Cook the pasta:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
Sauté the mushrooms:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the spinach:
Stir the fresh spinach into the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Make the creamy sauce:
Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine pasta and sauce:
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat in the creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, stir in a bit of the reserved pasta water.
Serve and enjoy:
Plate the pasta and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper. Serve hot!
This creamy mushroom and spinach fettuccine is a comforting and flavorful dish that’s perfect for any pasta lover. Quick, easy, and utterly delicious!
