Pasta with a Garlic Cream Sauce



Claudia posted a recipe for me to try.  I was amazed how easy and tasty this recipe was, even the kids liked it.  You can add chicken, shrimp or even some veggies to this pasta. 

Ingredients:

1 stick of butter
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 Pint of whipping cream
4 oz of grated Parmesan cheese
8 oz of cooked linguini, spaghetti or angel hair pasta
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In a heavy bottom pan, melt the butter, add the garlic and let it infuse for a little bit (without browning the garlic).  Add the whipping cream, let it boil and simmer on low heat until the sauce is reduced by 10% (important step).  Add the Parmesan cheese and season to taste.  Add the cooked pasta and toss.
