Spaghetti Aglio Olio e Peperoncino Tutto a Crudo - Uno spettacolo unico...

Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the sliced garlic to the skillet and sauté until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Stir in the red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds to release their flavor.

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat in the garlic oil.

If the pasta seems dry, add a little reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.

Season with salt to taste and add the chopped parsley, tossing to combine.

Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
