Garlic Angel Hair Pasta Recipe

8 oz. angel hair pasta, uncooked
2 garlic cloves, peeled and halved (you can use garlic salt or powder if you’d like to even further simplify… add about 1 to 2 tsp. – add more if desired)
1/4 c. butter, cubed
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. chives
salt and pepper, to taste

Cook the angel hair pasta according to the package directions, adding garlic cloves to the water. If you don’t want to use the garlic cloves, don’t add anything to the water. Drain; discard garlic cloves if used.

Transfer the pasta to a serving bowl; add butter. Toss gently until butter is melted. Add the Parmesan, chives and garlic salt if desired; toss to coat. Makes about 6-8 servings.
