Tortellini cremosi

Ingredienti

• 1 pound tortellini (choose your favorite filling)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• fresh parsley (for garnish)

Preparazione

1. 1

   Cook the Tortellini:: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add tortellini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water before draining the tortellini.

2. 2

   Make the Sauce:: While the tortellini is cooking, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Pour in the heavy cream and add Italian seasoning. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Let the cream reduce slightly for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. 3

   Combine Tortellini and Sauce:: Add the cooked and drained tortellini to the skillet. Toss to coat with the creamy sauce. Gradually add the reserved pasta water, about a tablespoon at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

4. 4

   Stir In Cheese:: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Garnish and Serve:: Serve the creamy garlic tortellini hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
