BOURSIN CHEESE PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve some cooking liquid. While the pasta is cooking, heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and the garlic.
• Cook the garlic for 30 seconds (be careful not to burn it, if you do, start over). Add the frozen peas. If you are using another vegetable, I would steam it first. Peas take no time to cook, but larger veggies take longer.
• Add the chicken broth and wine to the pan. Bring the mixture up to a bubble.
• Stir in the Boursin cheese.
• Add the cooked pasta.
• Add the sundried tomatoes, dill, lemon pepper, and a grind of fresh pepper.
• Add half of the Parmesan and toss well. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of the pasta water.
• Top with pine nuts and the remaining Parmesan cheese.

CREAMY BOURSIN PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions and drain. Keep about a cup of pasta water just in case you need to thin out the sauce later. Meanwhile melt butter in a large saucepan and cook the garlic for a minute or two until fragrant, but not brown. Add heavy cream and bring the sauce to a simmer, about 5-7 minutes, until nice and thick. The spoon should leave a line/trail as you run it through the sauce.
• Turn the heat to low and add Boursin cheese, stirring until melted and fully incorporated. Taste the sauce and add any kosher salt or fresh black pepper as needed. Add drained pasta and toss everything to combine. Top with parsley for garnish
