How to Make Fettuccine Limoncello
- Cook 1 pound fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta cooks, brown 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup diced ham and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley. Cook until ham is lightly browned and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the drained fettuccine to the skillet with the ham and parsley.
- Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup limoncello, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Toss to combine, adding a little pasta water if needed to create a creamy sauce.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and parsley, if desired.
