Ingredients
- 12 ounces gluten-free fettuccine noodles
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Step 2
Add the gluten-free fettuccine noodles to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
Step 3
While the noodles are cooking, melt the unsalted butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Step 4
Once the butter is melted, stir in the salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Step 5
Drain the cooked noodles, reserving half a cup of pasta water.
Step 6
Add the drained noodles to the butter mixture in the pan and toss to coat the noodles evenly. If the noodles seem too dry, add a few tablespoons of reserved pasta water until reaching the desired consistency.
Step 7
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until the cheese is melted and noodles are well coated in a creamy sauce.
Step 8
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top of the noodles.
Step 9
Serve the gluten-free buttered noodles immediately, with additional Parmesan cheese on the side if desired.
