Pasta with Garlic and Oil, or "Spaghetti Aglio e Olio," is a classic Italian dish originating from Naples. This simple yet flavorful meal typically features spaghetti tossed in olive oil, sautéed garlic, red pepper flakes, and often garnished with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese. Olive oil serves as the primary fat source, offering heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while garlic provides potent antioxidants and potential immune-boosting properties. The dish is naturally dairy-free if Parmesan is omitted, making it suitable for certain dietary preferences. However, its simplicity also means it can be carb-heavy, offering limited protein or fiber unless whole-grain pasta is used. Pairing it with a side of vegetables or a lean protein can provide a more balanced nutritional profile. Perfect for those seeking a quick and comforting meal, Pasta with Garlic and Oil is a timeless representation of Italian culinary tradition.
