Description

A quick and easy one pot creamy garlic pasta recipe that’s delicious and requires minimal cleanup.


Ingredients

  • 8 oz pasta (fettuccine or spaghetti)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups milk (whole milk recommended)
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
  3. Add the pasta, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until the pasta is cooked and sauce is creamy (about 10-15 minutes).
  5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and well combined.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Avoid adding too much milk to prevent a watery sauce, and don’t skip the cheese for best flavor.
