Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated Romano cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoons Nutmeg (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic brown.
Step 3
Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese and grated Romano cheese, a little at a time, until completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Step 5
Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg if using, adjusting to taste.
Step 6
Continue to stir and cook on low heat for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the sauce is creamy and thickened to your liking.
Step 7
Remove the saucepan from heat. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a small amount of warm heavy cream or pasta water to adjust the consistency.
Step 8
Serve immediately over cooked pasta, grilled chicken, or vegetables. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
