Creating One Pot Creamy Garlic Pasta is straightforward if you follow these steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant and the onion is translucent.
- Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer.
- Add the pasta into the pot, ensuring it’s submerged in the liquid.
- Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, usually around 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once cooked, reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream.
- Add the Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until melted and the sauce thickens.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust as needed.
- Remove from heat and let the pasta sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the sauce to set.
- Garnish with chopped parsley or basil before serving.
This simple yet effective method allows everything to blend together beautifully, creating the creamy texture you crave.
