Ingredients:

1/2 lb. Pappardelle’s Aglio e Olio Tagliatelle
2 Tbsp. butter
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. parsley, minced
1 Tbsp. thyme, minced
1 Tbsp. rosemary, minced
2-1/2 cups heavy cream
1-1/2 cups white cheddar cheese, shredded

Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions: 

  1. In a small bowl, mix together minced herbs.
  2. Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, add butter to a large skillet over medium heat and cook until butter slightly browns, about 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. 
  4. Add herbs to skillet and cook, stirring frequently, for about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low and add heavy cream. When the cream is warm (but not too hot), add white cheddar and Parmesan and stir.
