BASIL FETTUCCINE



Basil Fettuccine image

This pasta is coated with a thick Alfredo sauce I make from plain yogurt. This keeps the sauce lower in fat than purchased varieties. Plus, you can easily double the recipe and serve it as a stand-alone supper rather than a side dish. -Elissa Armbruster, Medford, New Jersey

Tips:

  • Use fresh basil: Fresh basil has a more intense flavor than dried basil, so it's best to use it whenever possible. If you can't find fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but be sure to use less of it (about 1/3 of the amount of fresh basil).
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Fettuccine should be cooked al dente, which means it should still have a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is the key to a flavorful basil fettuccine sauce. Be sure to use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Season the sauce to taste: The amount of salt, pepper, and garlic you add to the sauce will depend on your personal preferences. Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings accordingly.
  • Garnish with fresh basil: A few leaves of fresh basil will add a pop of color and flavor to your basil fettuccine.

Conclusion:

Basil fettuccine is a quick and easy pasta dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up fresh basil from your garden. With its simple ingredients and delicious flavor, basil fettuccine is sure to become a family favorite.
