Fettuccine with Zucchini and Mushrooms
1 lb. fettuccine
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup butter, divided
1 1/4 lbs. zucchini, cut into strips
1 cup half & half, or cream
3/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. dried basil
1/2 cup fresh, chopped parsley
salt to taste
Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the fettuccine. Cook according to package directions and drain well. While the pasta is cooking, in a large skillet, heat half of the butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until nicely browned. Add the zucchini and saute briefly, 1-2 minutes. Add the half & half and the remaining butter, cut into pieces. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with the Parmesan and basil and mix well. Spoon into a serving bowl, sprinkle with the parsley and salt to taste and toss to combine. Serve with extra Parmesan on the side.
