Classic Creamy Garlic Parmesan Pasta

Serves 4 | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 8 oz (225g) spaghetti or fettuccine

• 4 tbsp unsalted butter

• 6 cloves garlic, minced (freshly crushed)

• 1 cup heavy cream (or whole milk for a lighter twist)

• ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra for garnish)

• ¼ cup grated Pecorino Romano (optional, for depth)

• ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)

• Freshly ground black pepper (generous, about ¼ tsp)

• 1 cup fresh spinach (optional, for color and nutrition)

• 2 tbsp olive oil (for sautéing)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep & Cook Pasta:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (1 tsp salt per quart of water). Add pasta and cook al dente (8–10 minutes; follow package instructions). Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining—this starchy liquid helps emulsify the sauce.

1. Sauté Garlic & Aromatics:

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil. Add minced garlic and cook for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and golden (avoid burning). If using spinach, add it now and cook until wilted (1 minute).

1. Simmer the Creamy Sauce:

Pour in heavy cream and reduce heat to low. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cream thickens slightly (it should coat the back of a spoon). Add salt and pepper, then stir in Parmesan and Pecorino Romano.

1. Combine Pasta & Sauce:

Toss drained pasta into the skillet. Stir vigorously to coat the pasta in the sauce. If too thick, gradually add reserved pasta water (1 tbsp at a time) until the sauce reaches a silky consistency.

1. Garnish & Serve:

Top with extra Parmesan, fresh basil leaves, and a sprinkle of black pepper. For a crispy texture, toss breadcrumbs with olive oil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes; sprinkle over the pasta before serving.
