Spaghetti alla Carrettiera

Cook Pete's Spaghetti until al dente in salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.

While the spaghetti cooks, heat the olive oil in a skillet over low heat.

Add the thinly sliced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Sauté gently, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Add pasta to the skillet with the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper mixture. Toss and coat evenly.

Season with salt and black pepper.

Garnish with chopped parsley.

Sprinkle pecorino romano cheese, if desired.
