Ingredients

• 1 pound of spaghetti
• 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves chopped fine
• 3 anchovy fillets
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
• 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• parmesan cheese to taste
• pinch of salt and pepper

Directions

• Boil a large pot of water, add salt after it boils
• Boil the spaghetti until it is al dente
• While the spaghetti is cooking, heat a large frying pan over medium heat.
• Add the olive oil and once heated, add the anchovy fillets, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
• Break up the anchovies so they melt into the olive oil. About 2-3 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low/medium and add the al dente spaghetti along with a ladle of pasta water.
• Allow the spaghetti to finish cooking in the pan, stirring often so the sauce becomes slightly creamy. Add more pasta water if necessary.
• Remove from the heat, add fresh parsley and mix.
• Top with parmesan cheese, and enjoy
