yield: 4 SERVINGS prep time: 10 MINUTES cook time: 20 MINUTES total time: 30 MINUTES

The easiest and creamiest pasta made in a single pot – even the pasta gets cooked right in the pan! How easy is that?

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
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

DIRECTIONS:

1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
2. Stir in chicken broth, milk and fettuccine; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
3. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pasta is cooked through, about 18-20 minutes. Stir in Parmesan. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk as needed until desired consistency is reached.
4. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
