Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups shredded parmesan cheese (it's ok to use 1 of those pre-grated bags of fresh parm cheese but don'tsp use the stuff from a gree)
1/4 lb unsalted butter, melted
1 garlic
1 tsp fresh ground pepper
2 tsp cornstarch , made into a slurry with
1 tbsp cold water

Directions:

Melt butter in a Pyrex measuring cup in the microwave on a low wattage. I melt in the micro so as to not scorch it. If butter is browned in the least little bit throw it out and start over. The sauce is ruined if you proceed.
In a hot sauce pan cook garlic in a tsp of oil until fragrant and then add melted butter, cream, pepper, and parm cheese.
Heat it SLOWLY until everything is melted and combined, Constantly stirring with a whisk. It won't take long maybe 3-4 minutes.
Add cornstarch/water mixture and simmer until thickened. Two minutes or so.
Serve sauce immediately over linguine noodles topped with grilled chicken breast strips or shrimp.
