Ingredients:
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 4 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  •  ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¾ pound pasta, such as linguine
  • 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
  •  3 tablespoons chopped basil
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
  •  salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a large sauté pan over medium-low heat. As soon as the garlic begins to sizzle and smell fragrant, turn off the heat and let the oil infuse.

2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions and reserve 1 cup of the cooking water before draining.

3. Turn the heat under the sauté pan to low and toss in the drained pasta. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, adding the reserved cooking water 1 tablespoon at a time until the sauce has a nice consistency.
​
4. Turn off the heat, add the herbs and ½ cup Parmesan, and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with extra Parmesan on the side.
