- Add the shredded meat, tomatoes and gravy and simmer, stirring occasionally, over mediium heat until the sauce is thickened and flavorful, 20-30 minutes. Stir in the cream and parsley and adjust the seasoning according to taste. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and add to the pot with the sauce, tossing to coat the pasta. Add 1/2 cup of the cheese and toss to blend.
- To serve, divide among pasa bowls and serve with the remaining cheese passed alongside.
