Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 8 oz linguine pasta and cook for 9-11 minutes until al dente, then drain reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
Step 2: While pasta cooks, heat 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 5 thinly sliced garlic cloves and 1 tsp red chili flakes, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until the garlic is golden and fragrant but not burnt.
Step 3: Add the drained linguine to the skillet along with 1/4 cup reserved pasta water and 1 tsp salt. Toss vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the pasta is coated in the garlic chili oil.
Step 4: Remove from heat, stir in 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, tossing until cheese melts slightly. Serve immediately.
