Creamy Garlic Pasta
This creamy garlic pasta comes together in just 15 minutes! Plenty of garlic, cream, and Parmesan make it totally irresistible.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces uncooked penne pasta (~2 cups)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- ¾ cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a medium pot, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until it smells delicious.
- Add the chicken broth and cream, and bring to a gentle boil. Let it bubble for 7-9 minutes until reduced in volume by about 60%.
