- Prep Time 5 minutes
- Total Time 25 minutes
- Yield Serves 4
Ingredients
- Coarse salt
- 12 ounces fettuccine
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta, and set aside (reserve pot).
