I made these the other night and they were so easy and full of flavor you have got to try them out. We are a meat and potato family for the most part. But some times I want something a little different than potatoes or even rice. I rarely ever make pasta for the “starch” part of dinner but we had already had rice and potatoes recently and I wanted something to go with my chicken thighs I was about to make.

These noodles fit the bill perfectly and everyone loved them. They came together in about 15 minutes. There was a ton of flavor between the garlic and the freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese how could it not. I highly recommend that you buy good parmesan cheese and grate it yourself. There is a noticeable difference and I want your noodles to come out as good as mine were.

Because I used thin spaghetti the noodles were cooked in the sauce you are going to make, which not only saves time it helps on the other end since you only have to clean one pan. Plus cooking the noodles in the chicken broth adds flavor to the noodles. It is a total win win.
