Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole wheat spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the pasta water, and set aside.

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, ground black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix until the ingredients are well combined, then add the reserved pasta water to the skillet.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low, add the cooked noodles to the skillet, and toss everything together until the noodles are thoroughly coated with the sauce.
Step 6
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.
