Method
 

How to Make One Pot Creamy Garlic Pasta
  1. Start by heating the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Then, add the uncooked pasta, ensuring it's submerged in the liquid. Bring to a gentle simmer, cooking for about 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is tender, stirring occasionally.
  3. Once the pasta is cooked to al dente, remove the pot from heat. Gradually stir in the parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Serve immediately.
