Ingredients
2 tsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp butter
3 cups chicken broth (add more if needed)
½ tsp ground black pepper
¼ tsp salt
½ lb spaghetti
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
¾ cup heavy cream
1½ tbsp dried parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
Stir in butter, then pour in chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
Add uncooked spaghetti. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente and most of the broth is absorbed (about 10–12 minutes).
Lower heat and mix in Parmesan, heavy cream, and parsley. Stir until cheese is melted and sauce is creamy.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan or parsley if desired.
Notes
Storage: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of broth or cream.
Luscious, garlicky, and ready in minutes—this pasta is a creamy dream come true!
