Description
This Creamy Garlic Parmesan Ramen transforms humble instant noodles into a rich and satisfying dish with buttery garlic, melty Parmesan, and a touch of Italian seasoning. A quick, comforting meal that tastes gourmet with minimal effort.
Ingredients
3 (3-ounce) packages instant ramen noodles (seasoning packets discarded)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
6 cups water
Optional: Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a large soup pot. Add ramen noodles and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant (do not brown).
Stir in Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and the reserved cooking water. Stir until cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
Add cooked ramen to the skillet. Toss gently to coat with the sauce. Heat through for 1–2 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot.
