Main Ingredients

  • 9 oz cheese tortellini
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes until al dente. Drain the tortellini and set it aside.
  • In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant and golden.
  • Pour in the heavy cream, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it thicken for about 3-5 minutes. Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet, toss to coat in the sauce, and serve hot garnished with fresh basil.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, use an air fryer or oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes for optimal texture.
