These buttered noodles are simple and quick. Pasta is tossed with butter, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. A wonderful recipe to make when you don't feel like making a trip to the grocery store. I used what I had on hand and it worked like a charm.
Ingredients
- 1 package dry spaghetti , 8 ounce
- 8 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper , optional
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.

Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Melt butter with garlic very slowly to avoid burning the garlic. Season with parsley, salt, black pepper, and cayenne.

Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss until well coated with butter. Increase the heat to medium and cook until pasta is heated through and has absorbed some of the butter. Adjust seasonings if necessary.

Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

Southern-Style Pig Tails
Pig tails are used in a lot of different cuisines. They are great as a meat dish with turnip greens, blackeye peas, or boiled cabbage. My recipe cooks the tails twice, and the result is a crispy crackling covering the tail that you can eat or save for crackling in cornbread. The crushed red pepper can be used liberally for a spicy taste. Be sure to buy pig tails that have a lot of meat around the upper part.
Cajun Chicken, Shrimp, and Sausage Pasta
This flavorful pasta recipe includes lots of our favorite things and can easily be adapted to use what you have on hand. A crusty bread for dipping in the sauce would be great with this!
Quick Fontina Cheese Fondue
This recipe is similar to a one from a well-known food chain. But I find it to be richer and have more flavor depth. Serve it with chunks of bread, apples, and pears.
