Directions
Scrape and trim the asparagus. Slice the spears on the bias, creating lengths of ¼ inch.
In a kettle, bring 3 quarts of water to a boil. Add the fettuccine, boiling vigorously for 9 to 12 minutes. Do not overcook; the pasta should be al dente. Reserve ¼ cup of the cooking water and drain the pasta.
Melt the butter in the kettle and add the asparagus. Sauté for about 1 minute and add the fettuccine, goat cheese, chives and the pepper. Pour in the reserved water. Toss well and serve.
