Low Cal Fettuccine Alfredo Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. I sometimes use a ladle, fill each of four serving bowls with about 1/2 boiling water and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until foaming. Whisk in the flour until mixture is smooth and golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk, half-and-half, garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Discard garlic, stir in Parmesan and remove from heat.
• Stir pasta and remaining salt into the boiling water and cook, stirring constantly, until al dente, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
• Return sauce to low heat, add 1/3 cup pasta water and the cooked pasta. Toss until evenly coated. Cook until sauce has thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Add more water as needed to thin sauce to desired consistency and adjust seasonings.
• Working quickly, empty the water from the warmed bowls and fill with pasta. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until golden, about 1 minute. Mix in flour and cook until you have a thick paste, about 1 minute. Whisk chicken broth in slowly until mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and whisk until smooth.
• Simmer mixture until thick, about 10 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper; stir until cheese melts and sauce is smooth.

Steps:

• Cook fettuccine as directed on package, omitting salt. Drain; return to saucepan. Cover to keep warm; set aside.
• Meanwhile, in medium bowl, stir milk, flour, salt, black pepper and red pepper with wire whisk until smooth. In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly (do not burn). With wire whisk, stir milk mixture into butter mixture in saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes or until mixture thickens and boils.
• Stir in cream cheese until melted. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted. Pour over fettuccine; toss to coat. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Cook pasta, drain, set aside.
• Cook olive oil and garlic in a skillet until browned.
• Add pasta to skillet, and add 1/2 cup cheese. Mix together.
• Add milk, stir, cook on medium heat for 2 minutes or so.
• Mix yogurt with 1/2 cup of pasta in a separate bowl, to prevent curdling.
• Return yogurt and pasta to pan, mix well.
• Remove from heat, add remainder of cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover and let stand for 12-15 minutes, so the pasta can absorb all the liquid.

Steps:

• Combine chicken breasts and chicken broth in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low; simmer for 5 minutes. Turn breasts, cover, and simmer another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit with the cover on for 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken breasts from the broth and set aside to cool, reserving the broth in the saucepan. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, cut into bite-size slices.
• Return the chicken broth to medium heat and cook until reduced to 1 cup.
• Stir garlic, black pepper, and heavy cream into the reduced broth; bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
• Whisk egg yolks in a bowl until smooth. Beat 1 tablespoon of the warm cream mixture into the eggs until thoroughly incorporated; repeat until about 1/2 cup of the warm cream mixture is used.
• Whisk the warm cream and egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture almost comes to a simmer and thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until nearly cooked through, about 7 minutes. Drain.
• Stir parsley, 1 cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano, and cream mixture into the pasta. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for a few minutes until thick.
• Fold chicken and 1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano into the pasta mixture to serve.
