Ingredients:
- 12 oz keto-friendly noodles (e.g., shirataki noodles or zucchini noodles)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup grated mozzarella (optional)
Instructions:
- Cook the noodles:
- If using shirataki noodles, drain and rinse them well before cooking. If using zucchini noodles, sauté them lightly until tender.
- Set the noodles aside, reserving about 1/4 cup of cooking liquid (if using shirataki noodles).
- Prepare the creamy sauce:
- In a large skillet, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Add the cheese:
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese and mozzarella (if using), allowing the sauce to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, and dried parsley.
- Combine noodles and sauce:
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing to coat them in the creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved cooking liquid to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve:
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and parsley, if desired.

Special Tip: 💡
For the best texture, let the egg noodles cool completely after cooking—this helps them firm up and hold their shape better. Then, when ready to serve, toss them gently in the creamy sauce over low heat to prevent them from breaking. For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder, parmesan cheese, or fresh herbs to elevate the dish even more! 😋
I like new and easy recipes for dinner for 2. My husband does not like crockpot recipes but I do! Any ideas for simple recipes? I have a pint of heavy cream I need to use so anything simple but good? Husband hates crockpot recipes but I love them. Compromise with ingredients I have in fridge like a sm carton of heavy cream I want to use! He loves pasta I like chicken? Any recipes that I have ingredients on hand would love to receive? Thanku
I’m going to try the first pasta recipe for dinner! Can I add chic to this pasta? If so when?
