Ingredients
- ½cup butter
- 12fresh sage leaves
- 1cup frozen petite peas
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1pound fresh fettuccine
- ¼pound Parmesan, grated (about 1½ cups)
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Over medium heat, melt ¼ cup of the butter in a small saucepan. Add the sage leaves and cook until they are crisp. When the butter begins to brown, add the peas and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add ¼ cup water, cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes, drain well and toss with the remaining butter, ¾ cup of the grated Parmesan and the pea-and-sage mixture. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and place in the oven for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.

I used rice pasta as we are gluten free and it was still very delicious. It was served with a fresh salad and was a satisfying lunch.
