Tortellini with sage butter

2 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
9 ounces Fresh cheese
Or herb-cheese tortellini
12 Sage leaves
¼ cup Butter
Salt and pepper
¼ cup Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Cook the tortellini in a large pot of boiling, salted water until tender but still firm, about 7 min. Drain well.

2. Meanwhile, cut the sage leaves into small pieces. Cook the butter in a medium frying pan over medium heat until it is lightly browned, 1-2 min (don't let it burn). Add the sage and cook, stirring constantly, until it turn deep green, about 1 min.

3. Add the pasta to the pan with the sage butter. Cook, tossing gently, until heated through, about 1 min. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. Pour the tortellini into a serving bowl and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Toss well and serve immediately.
