Ingredients
-
4 medium zucchinis, spiralized
-
2 tbsp butter
-
2 garlic cloves, minced
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
2 tbsp parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions
-
Spiralize the zucchini: Use a spiralizer to turn the zucchinis into zoodles and set aside.
-
Prepare the Alfredo sauce: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
-
Make the sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
-
Toss the zoodles: Add the zoodles to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, just until heated through.
-
Garnish and serve: Season with salt and pepper, garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan, and serve hot.
- For a protein boost, add grilled chicken or shrimp. Use Pecorino Romano cheese for a sharper flavor twist.
