Parsley Chive Buttered Noodles

Parsley Chive Buttered NoodlesYou’ve undoubtedly heard of Cacio e Pepe. I am sure I will have a post to honor that dish unto itself – it’s simple yet satisfying flavors. For now though, I wanted to share an equally simple and flavorful dish using the Parsley Chive butter from my last compound butters post.

Parsley, chives, butter, cheese, pepper, and noodles. Really, its that simple, but the dish is amaaaaaaazingly good. If you have some of this compound butter sitting around to use, this dish comes together as fast as you can cook the pasta (remember al dente here folks). You are going to probably want seconds…
