Method
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the linguine, and cook until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.

- Add the minced garlic and butter to the skillet, sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, simmer until slightly thickened, then stir in the cheese until melted.
- Add the drained linguine to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce, adjusting consistency with reserved pasta water if needed.

Notes
For the best flavor, use freshly grated cheese and avoid pre-shredded options. Don’t overcook the pasta; it should be al dente to hold up in the sauce. This dish can easily be customized with vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for added nutrition and color. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, adding a splash of milk when reheating to revive the sauce's creaminess.
