Tastes like the real deal but much lower in fat! For best results, use Original Style Mountain High Yoghurt. This sauce can also be poured over ravioli. Or toss with cooked chicken, steamed broccoli, sautéed mushrooms, and cooked pasta.
Ingredient List
- 8 oz uncooked fettuccine
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 3/4 cup to 1 cup from 1 tub Mountain High™ Original Plain Whole Milk Yoghurt
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper
Preparation
- Prepare the pasta according to package directions; drain and return pasta to pan.
- Meanwhile, in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add flour and whisk until smooth. Continue cooking for one to two minutes, whisking constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Slowly whisk in milk. Whisk in chicken broth. Heat to boiling stirring constantly; boil and stir 1 minute. Add 3/4 cup yoghurt and whisk until smooth. Lower heat to very low and whisk occasionally to keep warm until pasta is done. Add up to 1/4 cup more yoghurt if a thicker sauce is desired.
- Pour sauce over pasta, toss to coat pasta evenly with sauce. Over medium –low heat, add Parmesan and toss to distribute evenly. Season with cracked pepper and salt. Continue cooking, tossing constantly, until pasta is coated well, about one minute. Serve immediately.
