- 400 g spaghetti
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Salt, to to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
- While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the garlic slices and red pepper flakes, cooking until the garlic is golden brown but not burnt, about 2-3 minutes.
- Drain the spaghetti, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water, and add the pasta to the skillet with the garlic and oil. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water as needed to create a light sauce.
- Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if using.
- Toss everything together until the spaghetti is well-coated and serve immediately.
