Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add 1 tbsp salt. Cook the gluten free linguine according to the package directions until just al dente — tender with a slight resistance at the center. Before draining, scoop out 1 cup of the starchy pasta water and set it aside. Drain the pasta in a colander.

While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and just softened, about 1 minute — watch closely so it does not brown.
