Notes
- When cooking the garlic, cook until it's golden brown, then add the noodles. Garlic tends to go from golden to burnt pretty fast, so be vigilant.
- You can use butter instead of olive oil. If you do, use 3 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil to help prevent the butter from burning.
- Make this a complete meal by stirring in 1-2 cups of shredded cooked chicken immediately after adding the pasta to the skillet.
- You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat them gently in the microwave at 50% power.
