Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Sauté the minced garlic for 1–2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer.
Add the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir for 3–5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley if using.
Use immediately or cool and refrigerate in an airtight container.

Notes

Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce for a spicy kick.

Swap heavy cream with half-and-half or milk for a lighter version.

Mix in mozzarella or Asiago for extra cheesy flavor.

Add Italian seasoning or thyme for a herbal twist.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat gently on the stove with added broth or cream if needed.
