1
Fill a large pot with water and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring it to a boil.
2
Add the spaghetti into the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until they are al dente. Ensure not to overcook.
3
Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining the spaghetti.
4
While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
5
Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté on a low flame until it releases its aroma, but be careful not to burn it.

Sprinkle the red chili flakes into the pan and stir.

Add the prepared shrimp and cook on each side for about 2 minutes or until they turn pink.

Pour the reserved pasta water into the pan and increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Let it simmer until it reduces a bit and thickens into a sauce.

Before the sauce gets too thick, add the drained spaghetti into the pan and carefully toss to ensure each strand is coated with the sauce.
10
Sprinkle the chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently mix, ensuring everything is well combined.

Turn off the heat and serve your Garlic Shrimp Pasta immediately while it's hot. Enjoy!
