Notes
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, warm in a skillet over low heat until heated through, adding a splash of cream if needed to restore the sauce's creaminess. Adjust garlic to taste and consider adding herbs or vegetables for extra flavor.
