Method
- Cook spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and set aside.
- While the spaghetti is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté until the garlic is golden brown and fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, along with a splash of reserved pasta water. Toss everything together to coat the spaghetti evenly with the garlic-infused oil. If the pasta seems dry, add more pasta water as needed.
- Season the spaghetti with salt to taste, then sprinkle chopped parsley over the top. Toss again to combine.
- Serve the spaghetti aglio e olio hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy your simple and flavorful pasta dish!
