Ingredients
- 4 medium Zucchini
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles (zoodles) from the zucchini. Place them on a paper towel and gently pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini noodles and sauté for 3-4 minutes, just until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Step 4
Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and cream cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.
Step 5
Season the cream sauce with salt and black pepper. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Step 6
Add the cooked zucchini noodles back into the skillet with the cream sauce. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce.
Step 7
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
