Ingredients

  • Ingredients
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil

  • 4 Garlic Cloves, minced

  • 2 tbsp Butter

  • 3 cups Chicken Broth more if needed

  • 1/2 lb Spaghetti

  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

  • 3/4 cup Heavy Cream

  • 1 1/2 tbsp Dried Parsley

  • Alternative Ingredients
  • Olive Oil: Can replace with any vegetable oil or butter if unavailable.

  • Chicken Broth: Vegetable broth or beef broth can be used as substitutes.

  • Heavy Cream: Light cream coconut cream, or milk for a less rich option.

  • Spaghetti: Any pasta like fettuccine linguine, or gluten-free pasta options.

  • For a gluten-free version: Use gluten-free pasta.

Directions

  • Heat olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Stir in minced garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add butter to the pan, stirring constantly until it melts completely, about 1 minute.
  • Pour in the chicken broth. Stir in ground black pepper and salt, then bring to a boil, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add spaghetti to the boiling broth, cooking and occasionally stirring until pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. If needed, add more broth.
  • Mix in Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, and dried parsley until the sauce becomes smooth and pasta is well coated. Serve immediately, about 2 minutes.
