Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound pasta (penne, rotini, or your favorite shape)
  • 1 wheel Boursin cheese (garlic & fine herbs flavor recommended)
  • ½ cup pasta water, reserved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the Boursin cheese over low heat. If using garlic, sauté it in olive oil until fragrant before adding the cheese.
  3. Gradually add the reserved pasta water to the melted cheese, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce.
  4. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss gently to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the pasta to absorb the flavors.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality Boursin cheese for the best flavor.
  • Avoid overcooking the pasta; it should be al dente.
  • Add pasta water gradually to achieve the desired sauce consistency.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning as needed; Boursin cheese is already flavorful.
  • For variations, add sautéed vegetables, grilled chicken, shrimp, or your favorite herbs and spices.
