Bacon Mushroom Beer Alfredo



Indulge in a rich and flavorful pasta dish featuring crispy bacon, earthy mushrooms, and a creamy beer-infused Alfredo sauce. Perfect for a cozy night in or a special dinner with loved ones.

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz pasta of your choice
  • 6 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup beer preferably lager or ale
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions:

Follow the directions on the package to cook the pasta until it is al dente

Remove the water and set it aside

Boil chopped bacon in a big pan over medium-low heat until it gets crispy

Take the bacon out of the pan and set it aside

The fat from the bacon should stay in the pan

Put minced garlic and sliced mushrooms in the same pan

It will take about 5 minutes of cooking until the mushrooms are golden brown and the garlic smells good

Use beer to clean out the pan and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom

Add heavy cream and bring to a low boil

For two to three minutes, or until slightly thicker

Grated Parmesan cheese and cooked pasta should be added to the pan

Toss the pasta around until it's all covered and the sauce gets thicker

To taste, add salt and black pepper

Add the cooked bacon

Add fresh parsley as a garnish if you like

Enjoy while hot!
