How to Make Fettuccine Verde

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the minced garlic and green onions to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly softened.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens.
  5. Add the drained fettuccine to the cream sauce. Toss gently to coat.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Add a splash of the reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve immediately, topped with the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg.
