One Pot Garlic Parmesan Pasta

On the upside, this was a delicious side dish that used items I had readily available in my pantry (I did have to resort to dried parsley instead of fresh).  Also, my kids loved it.  On the downside, the pasta did all stick together - but that was probably execution rather than directions. It was still delicious and made an excellent accompaniment to some spinach and feta chicken sausage I had on hand.

One Pot Garlic Parmesan Pasta

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk, or more, as needed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
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

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

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

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.

Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
