Ingredients

• 1 cup half and half
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Directions

1. A medium saucepan requires butter to melt under medium heat.
2. The saucepan receives the minced garlic after butter melting when it reaches its perfect state of melting.
3. The half and half needs to simmer while you occasionally stir the mixture until it reaches a gentle heat.
4. The heat should be reduced to a minimum while you slowly incorporate Parmesan cheese into the mixture until it reaches a smooth creamy consistency.
5. Add black pepper and salt to the mixture before adding a pinch of nutmeg while you stir everything together.
6. The sauce needs 2-3 minutes of additional cooking time to achieve a thicker consistency.
7. After removing the sauce from heat you can serve it with pasta or vegetables while adding fresh parsley on top.
