Equipment

  • Large skillet

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp butter divided
  • 1/2 white or yellow onion finely diced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 lb uncooked anelletti pasta
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken broth plus more as needed
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp salt and pepper more to taste
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Cook the onion and garlic. Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3–4 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
  • Add the pasta and liquids. Stir in the uncooked pasta, chicken broth, milk, heavy cream, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil.
  • Simmer the pasta. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. If needed, add more broth, ½ cup at a time, and continue cooking until tender. Keep a little liquid in the pan for a creamy sauce.
  • Stir in the cheese. Turn off the heat. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, Parmesan, and mozzarella until melted and creamy. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper. Serve warm!
