Creamy Lemon Fettuccine image

Deliciously refreshing with a decadent edge! The combination of lemon and pasta is definitely under-rated. Courtesy of foodblog "Cream Puffs in Venice". The photo I posted is made with fresh home-made pasta, which made it even better!

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup heavy cream (35% cream)
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano, freshly grated)
1/2 lb fettuccine
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the cream in a small pot until it's just about to come to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the lemon zest. Set aside for 10 minutes. Drain the cream through a sieve to remove the lemon zest.
  • Put a large pot of water to boil; once it comes to a boil add the fettuccine and cook according to package directions.
  • As the fettuccine cook, melt the butter in a large pan (large enough to accommodate the fettuccine). Add the lemon cream and bring to a boil; add a bit of salt and pepper (taste to make sure that it's to your liking; add more salt if necessary). Lower the heat and let the cream simmer; it will reduce slightly and thicken.
  • As soon as the fettuccine are cooked add them to the cream mixture. Immediately add the Parmigiano Reggiano and toss gently until all the fettuccine are covered in the sauce. As you toss the pasta, the melting Parmigiano and the starch from the pasta will combine to thicken the sauce further.
  • Serve the pasta immediately with additional Parmigiano.
  • Enjoy!

This recipe was a hit with my family! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the fettuccine was cooked perfectly. The asparagus added a nice touch of crunch and freshness. This is a dish that I will definitely be making again.

This dish was a bit too lemony for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more subtle lemon flavor. However, the sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the fettuccine was cooked perfectly. Overall, this was a good dish, but I would make a few change

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce curdled and the fettuccine was mushy. I think I must have done something wrong, because this recipe has such good reviews. I'll definitely give it another try, but I'll be more careful next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The sauce lacked flavor and the fettuccine was overcooked. I think I would have preferred more lemon and garlic in the sauce, and I would have cooked the fettuccine for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very heavy and the lemon didn't do enough to cut through it. I think I would have preferred a lighter sauce, perhaps with a white wine base.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon in savory dishes, but this recipe changed my mind. The lemon was subtle and complemented the creamy sauce perfectly. The asparagus was a great addition, adding a bit of texture and color to the dish.
