Fast, easy and delicious, this is a brilliant recipe that frees up your time. With only a handful of everyday ingredients, this is the type of dish your entire family will love. Parmesan, pasta and garlic. Yum! How could it possibly get any better?
Parmesan Garlic Noodles
At a glance
- Time: under 15 minutes
- Type: quick side dish, or a light meal with chicken or salad
- You’ll need: angel hair pasta, butter, chicken stock, fresh garlic, fresh parsley, half and half (or whole milk), olive oil, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper
Good to know
- Grate the Parmesan yourself. Freshly grated Parmesan melts into a smooth sauce. Pre-grated cheese in a tub contains anti-caking agents and can turn grainy.
- Other pasta shapes. Angel hair is the quickest. Spaghetti, linguine or fettuccine work too; they just need a few more minutes and a little more liquid.
- Lighter or richer. Whole milk gives a lighter sauce than half and half. Either way, serve it straight away, because the sauce thickens as it cools.
- Vegetarian? Vegetable stock in place of the chicken stock keeps the same idea meat-free.
- Leftovers. Keep them covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. Add a splash of milk or stock when you reheat, to loosen the sauce.
What to serve with Parmesan garlic noodles
These noodles go with almost any simple main. Try them next to garlic butter chicken, lemon garlic butter shrimp or garlic butter salmon bites. If you love this kind of easy garlicky pasta, you will also like our garlic butter spaghetti with herbs and the one-pot garlic chicken Alfredo.

DELICIOUS garlic noodles
Love all Pasta dishes..will make..
Will try some chicken in it.
I prefer to eat pasta this way all the time.
Maybe not. Maybe it will make your meal taste like it was cooked by one.

Yeah it looks good. I like noodle stuff
Looks delicious.
When we lived in Arizona in the mid-1960’s, we had this when we visited some Italian friends one night. I was hooked! (It was their TV snack each night. 🙂 )
I always prefer to eat my pasta with garlic, parm, & butter instead of the traditional red sauce. Unless its lasagne, baked ziti, etc.
Hate looking for recipes

Leave out the chicken stock and any half and half or milk. Just add some pasta water to the oil and garlic. Classic pasta aglio e olio.

It’s absolutely ridiculous that you have to click through multiple pages to get to the actual recipe and instructions. If you hit the wrong link, you end up in some awful ads for steroids. WHY…..just make it simple and fun for people to see and share great recipes.
Clicking on Next Page doesn’t get you all the way there…you still have to click on yet another link…..it’s a STUPID way to share recipes
this make me feel hungry
