One Pot Garlic Parmesan Pasta

I make this when I babysit my auntie's kids. They love it.

Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 cups chicken broth

• 1 cup milk, or more, as needed

• 8 ounces uncooked fettuccine

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

• 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

• Optional parsley garnish

Instructions:

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the garlic in and cook it until it's fragrant, which should be 1-2 minutes.

2. Stir in chicken broth, milk and fettuccine; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

3. Bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring it occasionally, until pasta is cooked through, about 18-20 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk as needed until you think it's thin enough.

4. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

Notes:

• If you decide to double the recipe, don't double the garlic. Do 1.5 times the original, so 6 cloves.
