Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let the garlic brown.
Add the red chili flakes to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds to release their flavor.
Pour the canned crushed tomatoes into the skillet. Stir well and bring the sauce to a simmer.
Season the sauce with salt and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened slightly.
Tear the basil and parsley leaves into smaller pieces and add them to the sauce. Stir to incorporate.
Add the cooked penne pasta to the sauce. Use tongs or a large spoon to toss the pasta with the sauce, ensuring it is fully coated.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly grated parmesan cheese if desired.
