Ingredients

12 ounces fettuccini, uncooked
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves
3/4 cup red bell pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup white wine
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Mince garlic and slice red bell pepper.
Cook fettuccini according to package directions, omitting the salt. Drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan melt butter and combine with the olive oil. Add garlic and red bell pepper. Sauté 1 to 2 minutes until vegetables are soft.
Slowly stir flour into the pan. Cook 1 minute until smooth.
Add wine gradually, stirring until smooth.
Add broth, creamer, parsley and black pepper. Stir to blend.
Gradually add Parmesan cheese. Reduce heat to low and cook 5 to 7 minutes until mixture starts to simmer. Stir occasionally.
Toss the sauce with the drained fettuccini.

Helpful hints

Increase garlic if you are a garlic lover.
Half and half creamer can be replaced by phosphate-free milk substitutes.
