How to Make Spaghetti With Garlic Hot Pepper And Parsley

  1. Cook 1 pound of spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 cloves of minced garlic and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  3. Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the broth has reduced slightly.
  4. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet along with 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley.
  5. Toss the spaghetti until well coated, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
  6. Serve immediately. Garnish with extra parsley and Parmesan cheese, if desired.
