How to Make Fusilli With Toasted Garlic Breadcrumbs
- Cook 1 pound fusilli pasta according to package directions, reserving ¾ cup of the pasta cooking water.
- While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 4 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Stir in 1 cup breadcrumbs, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Toast, stirring frequently, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Drain the cooked pasta and add it to a large, warm bowl.
- Add all but 1 cup of the toasted breadcrumbs to the pasta along with the reserved pasta water. Toss gently to combine.
- Divide the pasta among 4 serving plates.
- Sprinkle the reserved breadcrumbs over each serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and serve immediately.
