Pretty “Parslied” Spaghetti

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Made

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp., plus 1/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 8 oz. uncooked spaghetti
  • 5 tsp olive oil, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped parsley
  • 2 1/2 oz. grated Parmesan
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

  1. Bring a large saucepan of water and 1 tbsp. salt to a boil. Add pasta; cook 7 minutes or until al dente. Drain in a colander over a bowl, reserving 1 1/2 cups cooking liquid.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp. oil in a skillet over medium. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes or until pale golden-brown.

  3. Scoop pasta directly into the skillet, tossing to coat. Add parsley and Parmesan, and toss until all the pasta strands are covered. Add 1 to 1 1/2 cups reserved pasta water to pan as needed to loosen sauce. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 tsp salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining 2 tsp olive oil.
