Here's a quick and easy 5-step recipe for making Restaurant-Style Garlic Butter Pasta at home in just 20 Minutes.

Cook the Pasta, boil water in a large pot with salt. add pasta and cook until al dente, then drain and save ½ cup of pasta water.

Saute the Garlic, in a pan, heat olive oil and butter on a low-medium flame. add chopped garlic and saute until golden and fragrant.

Add Seasoning, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. stir gently so the garlic doesn’t burn. you can add a splash of the saved pasta water to prevent sticking.

Toss in the Pasta, and add cooked pasta to the pan. mix well so the garlic butter coats every strand. add a bit more pasta water if needed to loosen it up.

Garnish & Serve, top with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. serve hot with a slice of toasted garlic bread.
