Preparation Steps
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil. Cook spaghetti until al dente, which typically takes about 8-10 minutes, and remember to reserve about half a cup of pasta water before draining.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and finely chopped chili peppers; sauté for about 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Add the drained spaghetti directly into the skillet, tossing to combine thoroughly with the sautéed garlic and chilies.
- Pour in the soy sauce and lemon juice while gradually adding the reserved pasta water, stirring until the sauce is silky.
- Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top.
- Plate the pasta into individual servings, drizzling any extra sauce from the skillet onto each portion.
Notes
Optional: Serve with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan for an extra savory kick. Adjust chili peppers to taste for preferred spice level.
