Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces Spaghetti
  • 10 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves

Method
 

  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine butter, garlic and red pepper flakes over medium heat until the butter has melted. Cook, whisking constantly until the foam subsides and the butter begins to turn a golden brown, about 4-5 minutes, skimming foam as necessary.
  3. Remove from heat. Stir in pasta and Parmesan until well combined, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  4. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
