An incredibly rich and delicious side to pair with roast chicken, fish, or other meals, this recipe features Skinny Pasta Fettuccine in a creamy Parmesan sauce. Shiitake mushrooms give the dish its deep, earthy, wild mushroom flavor, but the pasta can also be made with classic button mushrooms, criminis or portobellos for a milder sauce. Or, break out the gourmet wild mushroom varieties such as porcinis or chanterelles; this rich dish can handle them! In this recipe, shallots replace the garlic often used in Italian cooking. You'll love the mellow kick shallots provide. Like garlic, they sharpen or accentuate a recipe's flavors, without giving off the bite garlic sometimes does. This pasta can stand on its own as a main dish, too, served alongside a green salad with a bright vinaigrette.
