Ingredients
12 ounces dried pasta (such as penne or fusilli)
4 cups water
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
5 ounces Boursin garlic and herb cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Add the dried pasta, water, chicken broth, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes and Boursin cheese to the pot. Stir well until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy and coats the pasta evenly.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley or Parmesan if desired.
