Ingredients:
For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
1 pound of pasta
2 tablespoons of butter
4 cloves of garlic, minced
2 cups of heavy cream
1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Preparation:
Before you start cooking, it’s important to have all your ingredients ready. Start by boiling a large pot of salted water for the pasta. While the water is heating up, mince the garlic and grate the Parmesan cheese. Chop the fresh parsley (if using) and set it aside for later.
Cooking Instructions:
Once the water is boiling, add the pasta and cook it according to the package instructions until it is al dente (cooked but still firm to the bite). This will usually take around 8-10 minutes, but check the package for exact cooking times.
While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Let the sauce come to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, or until it starts to thicken.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce and stir until it is fully melted and combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the pasta is done cooking, drain it and add it to the saucepan with the creamy garlic sauce. Toss the pasta until it is fully coated in the sauce.
Serve the pasta in bowls or plates, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
Creamy garlic pasta can be served as a main dish or as a side dish. You can also add some protein to the dish, such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or sausage. Serve the pasta with a side salad or some crusty bread for a complete meal.
