Spaghetti with Garlic, Oil, and Chile image

To make this 25-minute pasta dish that uses practically pantry-exclusive ingredients, olive oil and garlic go into a cold pan and warm up together to let their flavors meld and infuse. Then pasta water gets tossed in-not just for a splash of liquid, but to become part of the sauce and stop the garlic from getting darker. Add a little fresh chile, toss in the noodles to coat, grate some Parmesan on top, and you have an easy dinner in the bowl.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 ounces spaghetti or spaghettini
2 tablespoons thinly sliced garlic (from 4 cloves)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
1 Fresno or long finger chile, thinly sliced
4 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated (1 cup), plus more for serving (optional)
Fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season generously with salt. Stir in spaghetti and cook until slightly less than al dente, about 2 minutes less than package directions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain.
  • Meanwhile, add garlic and oil to a cold large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is just golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sage and chile; cook 1 minute more. Stir in 1/2 cup pasta water and a few grinds of pepper. Increase heat to high and cook, swirling skillet occasionally, until reduced by about half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add pasta; toss to coat.
  • Remove skillet from heat, add cheese, and toss vigorously, adding more pasta water as needed to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper and serve, with basil leaves and more cheese scattered over top.

I found that the spaghetti was a bit overcooked. I would recommend cooking it for a minute or two less.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but this dish was perfectly balanced. The chile added just a hint of heat without overpowering the other flavors.
