- 1 tbsp red chili flakes
- 2 tsp garlic and herb seasoning

- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add the garlic, chili flakes and garlic and herb seasoning, and cook until the garlic is lightly golden without burning.
- Add the drained spaghetti straight to the skillet with a splash of the reserved pasta water and toss until every strand is coated in the garlic oil.
- Take the pan off the heat, mix in a handful of the chopped parsley, the lemon juice and a generous sprinkle of Parmesan, and serve immediately in warm bowls.
