spicy crab spaghettini
Ingredients
(for one)cooked crabmeat (about 2 T)
1/2 small spanish onion, roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small tomato, diced
fresh parsley, chopped (about 1 T)
1/4 t chili garlic sauce (or Sambal Oelek/Indonesian chili paste)
pinch of red pepper flakes
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 lb spaghettini noodles (or any cut of choice)
Instructions
Now, this is my take on Spicy
Crab Pasta. A relatively lighter and mildly spicy version. In fact,
this is my favorite. It's a simple saute of onion, garlic, fresh
tomatoes, parsley with the addition of red pepper flakes and a small
portion of chili garlic sauce for added flavor and interest. As with
any other seafood dish, freshly squeezed lemon juice was added to
balance out & brighten up the flavors of the dish. As for my pasta
cut of choice for this light pasta dish, which is ideal for
spring/summertime weather (perfect for any time of year, in my
opinion), I thought spaghettini cut fits the bill.Saute onion and garlic.
Add cooked crabmeat.
Add red pepper flakes (to your liking)
and then the chili garlic sauce,
parsley,
lemon juice
+ a small amount of pasta cooking H20
diced tomatoes would come last as I prefer them not to be fully cooked in this recipe
Toss cooked spaghettini in sauce.
Add cheese if desired.
Good eatings!
