TORTELLINI WITH GARLIC CREAM SAUCE



Tortellini With Garlic Cream Sauce image

I made this for the second time tonight, and felt I had to share it. It is a delightful, light pasta dish, and would do very well for a "company" meal by tossing in a handful of shrimps, scallops, bacon bits, or whatever stirs your fancy. The recipe and instructions below follow the recipe to a "T", but I did add 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. crushed chili flakes because I thought it needed a bit of a boost. Hope you enjoy it.

Categories     Sauce recipes

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups heavy cream ( 35-36% fat)
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
18 ounces (500 grams) tortellini

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Begin boiling salted water for tortellini pasta. Cook your tortellini as per package instructions. Drain once cooked.
  • Crush the garlic with the flat of your knife and the heel of your hand. Transfer it to a 10-inch (25 cm) heavy bottomed skillet together with the butter.
  • As the butter melts, swirl it around for even coloring. Once it starts to turn brown, add olive oil to prevent butter from burning. Keep an eye on the butter as it goes from brown to burnt really quickly.
  • Once it smells nutty, add the heavy cream, seasoning and Parmesan cheese. Cook until the cheese is melted, stirring continuously. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
  • Add the cooked tortellini and toss to coat.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
