Instructions
Melt the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat.
Once it begins to bubble, add the garlic.
Cook for 3 – 5 minutes until fragrant.
Add the heavy cream, salt, minced onion, onion powder, cracked black pepper, lemon juice, and zest, and cook for another 1 – 2 minutes.
Add the parmesan cheese, constantly stir to allow even melting, and bring the mixture to a light boil.
Allow the sauce to reduce on medium-low heat and thicken for 5 minutes.
Prior to making the sauce or during, prepare the long fusilli pasta according to the instructions on the package in a large pot.
Rinse and strain, saving ¼ - ½ cup of the pasta water.
Transfer the pasta into the large pan with the sauce, add the amount of pasta water desired, and mix thoroughly to combine.
Add in the Sante Nuts Chipotle Almonds and chopped basil, and mix to combine.
Serve the pasta with fresh basil leaves and enjoy!
