Instructions

Getting started with Garlic Parmesan Pasta is simple and fun, perfect for beginners or seasoned cooks. Begin by grating the Parmesan cheese and letting it reach room temperature for smooth melting. Next, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat to build a flavorful base.

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to release its aroma. Then, stir in the chicken broth and any optional seasonings before slowly adding the milk and bringing the mixture to a boil. This step ensures the sauce develops a rich, savory profile.

1-Add the angel hair pasta, breaking it in half if needed or twisting it into the skillet.

2-Simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid sticking.

3-Reduce the heat to low, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, and toss to coat the pasta evenly.

4-Gradually sprinkle in the grated Parmesan cheese while stirring continuously until the sauce is smooth.

5-Garnish with fresh parsley and serve right away. The sauce will thicken as it sits, so enjoy it fresh for the best texture.
