Broken Spaghetti in Garlic-Butter and Parmesan Sauce

 

Hankering for a big, full bowl of pasta smothered in a creamy garlic-butter and Parmesan sauce?   

 

 

If so, I’ve got a great recipe for you!

 

This is perfectly cooked al dente pasta smothered in a creamy sauce infused with garlic, butter and Parmesan ~ what could be better on your dinner table?

Normally, I would add a few pics of cooking the dish along the way, that didn’t happen this time...

It’s called distracted cooking ~ I got sidelined with a side dish:

I turned the burner on high to heat the skillet quickly when I then heard a text message delivered on my phone. I got involved with that and forgot about the skillet over the hot burner.  

A few minutes later, I smelled something and recovered my burned skillet.  Definitely won’t be do that again, I hope!  Best not to turn the burner on high heat unless standing right by the stove!

No more cooking and multi-tasking in the kitchen...

But I will be making this spaghetti dish again soon, we loved it!  

The pasta is packed with great flavor and we enjoyed it as a side to grilled chicken.

Actually, I could make a meal of it alone...

It was creamy garlicky deliciousness!
