Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams spaghetti
- 150 grams salami (thinly sliced or diced)
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 200 grams cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 50 grams parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain the rest.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the salami to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to crisp up.
Toss the cherry tomatoes into the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and release some of their juices.
Add the cooked spaghetti directly into the skillet. Toss well to combine, adding a splash of reserved pasta water as needed to create a light sauce.
Stir in grated parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with additional parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
