Ingredients

  • 12 ounces gluten-free pasta
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 4 large garlic cloves
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 4

Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 5

Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, whisking continuously to ensure a smooth sauce. Continue stirring until the cheese has melted completely and the sauce is creamy and smooth.

Step 6

Season the sauce with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 7

Add the cooked gluten-free pasta to the skillet. Toss the pasta in the sauce until well coated and heated through.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, gluten-free creamy garlic Parmesan pasta.
