- Heat butter in a saucepan over medium heat; add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add pumpkin, evaporated milk, and chicken broth; bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Stir Parmesan cheese and black pepper into pumpkin sauce.
- Place peas in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave into warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Pour pumpkin sauce over pasta and top with peas.
