This is translated as “garlic oil pasta”. The cheese is not an ingredient for the original recipe but I like to add it, because I love cheese 😉

Ingredients

4 servings
  1. 6large garlic cloves sliced thin
  2. 1/2 cupgood evo
  3. 1/2 cupfresh grated pecorino romano
  4. 3/4 lbAngel hair
  5. 1 tspRed pepper flakes
  6. 1 cupchopped Italian parsley
  7. 1/2 cuppasta water
  8. 2chicken breast pounded to even thickness
  9. Blackening season (your choice) I use a mix of old bay and zatarians blackening seasoning

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the garlic and crushed red pepper to the cold oil and sauté at a low simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes until light golden brown, season with fresh ground black pepper mid way through.

  2. 2

    Drop your angel hair into the water. Make sure your pasta water is well salted. Time this step the best you can with the next step so you don’t overcook your pasta because your not going to strain the pasta rather than use tongs or a pasta utensil to transfer it right over to your pan. When you do this make sure most of the water drains off the pasta.

  3. 3

    While the pasta is cooking turn up the heat and add the parsley and simmer for another 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the pasta and toss well

  5. 5

    Add a 1/2 cup of the pasta water and simmer until a tight sauce has formed around the noodles. Remove from the heat and sprinkle in some fresh grated Romano, or whatever grated cheese you prefer.

  6. 6

    Blackened chicken-I’m not going to dictate when you cook your chicken or how. Sometimes I grill and sometimes I pan fry. Either way, I do this step first and set it at warm in the oven until I’m ready for it.
