One-Pan Creamy Garlic Pasta – 15-Minute Dinner

🕰️ Ready in: 15 minutes

Servings: 2

✨ Historical Background

Creamy garlic pasta has roots in Italian cucina povera, a humble cooking tradition that turned basic pantry staples into rich, satisfying meals. Originally made with just garlic, olive oil, and pasta water, this version adds cream for a velvety texture that brings comfort in every bite.

At Ez Kitch1n, we’ve reimagined this classic with a modern twist — ready in just 15 minutes, without losing any of its soul or flavor.
