Calabrian Chili Pasta
loading...
X
Servings: 2
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- ½ lb dry pasta (spaghetti, linguine, bucatini, really whatever, I’m sure penne etc would be great)
- 1 tbsp Calabrian chili paste
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- Lots of grated Parmesan cheese (½ cup? 1 cup? Eyeballed it this time, tbd on future makings)
- 1 splash olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
- Optional: capers, parsley
Steps
- Get a wide pan. Into this pan put the pasta, chili paste, garlic, oil, and salt, and add 3 cups water (maybe a little more, still trying to figure out ratio).
- Cook on high heat and stir regularly. The water will reduce as the pasta cooks. Your goal is to time it so the pasta water has a nice saucy consistency just as the pasta is finished. Maybe 10ish minutes, give or take.
- About a minute before the pasta is finished, and hopefully things are still a little too wet, add the cheese and stir til you’ve got a real nice sauce going on.
- Plate and serve. Top with a little more parm if you’re fancy.
Notes
- If you like capers or parsley, add them in whatever amount you want at the beginning with everything else.
- If you skip the parsley and use those little frozen garlic things instead of fresh, you can do this entire recipe without a knife and without any non-pantry ingredients.
