Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups chicken broth (add more if needed)
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ pound spaghetti
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • 1 ½ tablespoons dried parsley

Directions

  • Gather and prepare all the ingredients.
  • Heat olive oil in a medium-sized pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add butter and stir constantly until it melts and blends with the garlic.
  • Pour in 3 cups of chicken broth, followed by pepper and salt. Stir well and bring to a boil.
  • Add spaghetti directly to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite about 12 minutes. Add more broth if the pasta starts to stick.
  • Stir in grated Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, and dried parsley. Mix until the sauce thickens and coats the pasta evenly.
  • Serve immediately, topped with extra Parmesan or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for garnish.
