Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3 ounces angel hair pasta
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Bring chicken broth in a saucepan to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling broth, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Drain pasta, reserving 1/4 cup of chicken broth.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Italian seasoning, reserved 1/4 cup chicken broth, and whipping cream. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until melted.
  • Stir in angel hair pasta; toss to coat. Garnish with freshly minced parsley.

Notes

Cook's Notes:

I use a microplane grater to finely shred the Parmesan cheese.
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese will be about 24 grams of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
