Receta de pasta con mantequilla y ajo

Ingredientes

• 8 ounces spaghetti (or any other dried pasta or Gluten free pasta)
• Water
• Kosher Salt
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (plus more for serving)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (preferably European-style butter with high fat content)
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt (plus more to taste)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley (- roughly chopped, plus more for serving)

Preparación

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the pasta, and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain the pasta. Return the now-drained pasta back to the pot.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, make the butter garlic pasta sauce. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat until fully melted (but not browned.) Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the salt, pepper, and fresh parsley.

3. 3

   Drizzle the pasta with the butter garlic sauce and toss to combine. If the pasta is too sticky, use the reserved pasta water by adding and mixing it in 2-tablespoon increments.

4. 4

   Sprinkle the buttery pasta with parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley. Toss to combine.

5. 5

   When ready to serve, divide the pasta into serving bowls and garnish with more parmesan cheese and parsley.
