Easy 5-Ingredient Creamy Garlic Sauce

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

Add the grated or minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Stir in the Italian seasoning and cook for an additional 30 seconds to release its aroma.

Pour in the chicken broth and warmed half-and-half or heavy cream. Stir well to combine.

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce and thicken slightly.

If a thicker consistency is desired, prepare a slurry by mixing 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of cold water. Gradually add the slurry to the sauce, stirring continuously. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes until the sauce reaches the desired thickness.

Remove from heat and serve the sauce warm over your choice of pasta, chicken, or vegetables.
