Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg
Directions
Step 1
Mince the garlic cloves finely to ensure the flavor is evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Be attentive to prevent the butter from browning.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté it for about 1 minute, until it's fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
Pour the heavy cream into the saucepan while stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 5
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the cream mixture, stirring continuously until the cheese melts completely and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preference.
Step 7
Allow the sauce to simmer gently for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
Step 8
Once the Keto Alfredo Sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Step 9
Serve the sauce immediately over your favorite keto-friendly pasta or as a topping for grilled chicken or steamed vegetables.
