You can add more crushed red pepper flakes slowly until you get to the spiciness level you’re looking for. You can make this recipe spicy with an addition or too. Serving this under fish would be great too.Ĭan I make this aglio e olio recipe spicy?
Shrimp and chicken are great protein examples. Mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, and pepperoncini are my go-to’s. Like with my chicken tagliatelle recipe, you can add anything. What can I add to this easy pasta recipe? The hardest, and most time consuming, part of preparing this dish is chopping up the garlic and parsley. Prepare the penne per the box instructions (al dente) and the rest of the meal is made in a jiffy. I decided to substitute spaghetti for one of my favorite noodles, penne. My particular dental gear was not suited for long noodles and after a bad experience, I still steer clear from spaghetti or linguine. It all goes back to my early teen years and my time with braces and orthodontia. A few ingredients later, I had unknowingly made pasta aglio e olio but with penne instead of spaghetti.Īnd boom, my new go-to quick and semi-healthy weeknight dinner.Īglio e Olio means “garlic and oil.” Traditionally, pasta aglio e olio is served with spaghetti noodles – spaghetti Aglio e olio is a traditional Italian pasta dish from Naples. I, however, do not care for spaghetti. 
It’s always my go-to quick meal ingredient. So on my quick recipe journey, I went to pasta. Wouldn’t it be nice to just relax after work. I’m also on a quest to spend less time cooking dinner at night. Like most of the world, I am on a quest to eat healthier (at least in January haha). Serve it as a simple side dish for chicken or as dinner for meatless Monday! This penne aglio e olio is an easy twist on a classic pasta dish.
