Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions, 8–10 minutes, until al dente. Reserve ¼ cup of pasta water before draining.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced cremini mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and golden.
- Add 2 minced garlic cloves to the skillet and stir for 1 minute.
- Pour in ½ cup of white wine, scraping the bottom of the pan for 2 minutes to deglaze.
- Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter until melted, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, stirring for about 2 minutes until a paste forms.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of vegetable broth and 1 cup of skim milk. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until thickened.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, cooking for 1 additional minute until melted.
- Toss in the cooked fettuccine and mix gently to coat. Add reserved pasta water to adjust consistency if needed.
- Plate the fettuccine Alfredo and garnish with fresh herbs like thyme and oregano.
