Serves 4
Hands-on Time: 10m
Total Time: 20m

Ingredients

• 12 ounces spaghetti (3/4 box)
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, sliced
• 1 red chili pepper, sliced
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs
• 4 large eggs
• 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan

Directions

1. Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions; drain and return it to the pot.

2. In a small saucepan, warm 3 tablespoons of the olive oil with the garlic and red chili pepper, until the garlic begins to sizzle, 2 to 3 minutes. Add to the pasta in the pot, along with the herbs, and toss to combine.

3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook until the whites are set, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the eggs on the spaghetti. Top with the Parmesan.

Tip

Use your favorite herbs to dress the spaghetti. We like a combination of parsley, basil, and chives.
