Hello there! Today, I am sharing a simple and delicious pasta dish that is hearty enough for a main meal or makes a great side dish for meat. I have made this Parmesan Garlic Butter Bucatini two times within the past week because it is that good. My family eats a lot of pasta but not so much sauce. These noodles are lightly coated with a super simple sauce and it’s light and refreshing.
This Parmesan Garlic Butter Bucatini is a vegetarian dish made with garlic, butter, cream, parmesan, parsley and bucatini. Bucatini is a spaghetti-like pasta is is thicker than regular noodles and is hollow in the center. These noodles are nice to try if you have never had them before. You could use regular spaghetti noodles if you like but I highly recommend trying bucatini.
This pasta dish is ready to eat in just under 30 minutes making it a great weeknight meal. I hope you and your family love this Parmesan Garlic Butter Bucatini recipe as much as my family and I do.
