About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces fettuccine

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 tablespoons butter

  • 2 cups sliced (1 1/2 inch) fresh asparagus

  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced shallot

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 3/4 cup heavy cream

  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1


Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add fettuccine and cook until tender with a bite, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove fettuccine to a colander to drain, and reserve pasta water.


Step 2


Meanwhile, heat olive oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When butter has melted, swirl the skillet to mix with the oil.


Step 3


Add asparagus and shallot to the skillet and cook, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.


Step 4


Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and Italian seasoning and cook an additional 30 seconds.


Step 5


Stir in heavy cream and bring to a boil. Add grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted. See note. Stir in 1/4 to 1/2 cup reserved pasta water, if desired. Serve immediately.
