How to Make Alfredo Pasta Sauce

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped green onions and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until softened.
  2. Whisk in the flour and dissolved chicken bouillon granules (or chicken broth) until smooth and there are no lumps.
  3. Gradually whisk in the evaporated skim milk, ensuring that each addition is fully incorporated before adding more. This prevents lumps.
  4. Continue to cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce comes to a gentle simmer and begins to thicken (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese and black pepper until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Serve immediately over your favorite hot pasta. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, if desired.
