1
Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon garlic paste to a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until the garlic is fragrant and beginning to brown
2
Add in 1¼ cup ditalini pasta and stir to coat
3
Pour in 2 cups chicken broth (or enough to just cover the pasta) and add ¼ teaspoon salt, stirring frequently to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan
4
Cook until most of the broth has been absorbed (but not all) and the pasta is al dente
5
Add ½ cup Parmesan cheese, ¼ cup heavy cream, and 2 tablespoons salted butter, stirring until the cheese has melted
6
Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste and garnish with minced fresh parsley
7
Enjoy immediately, so the sauce doesn't break
