1-Getting Ready: First, gather all your ingredients and tools to make things easier. Cook the pasta according to package instructions, then drain and set it aside. This ensures your pasta is ready when the sauce is done.

2-Cooking the Sauce: Start by melting the butter over medium-low heat in a large skillet. Once melted, stir in the heavy cream and let it simmer for about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the pepperoncini juice if you’re using it, followed by the garlic, red pepper flakes, garlic salt, salt, and pepper, and simmer for another minute. This step builds the flavor base, so take your time.

3-Adding the Cheese: Turn off the heat and slowly add the cheeses in small amounts while whisking continuously. This creates a smooth, creamy sauce that’s the heart of the dish. The mild spice level can be customized by adjusting the red pepper flakes, making it perfect for different tastes.

4-Combining Everything: Now, add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss it well to coat every piece. For extra protein, mix in some cooked shredded rotisserie chicken if you like. Reheating is simple just add a bit of cheese or oil to keep it creamy. One tip: If you enjoy other pasta dishes, our Pesto Pasta offers a fresh twist you might want to try next.
