Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce

- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Don’t be shy, give it a good stir and taste it; you want it just right.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle some fresh chopped parsley on top for that pop of color and freshness.
