Made this last night for a quick and easy dinner...and it was that and delicious! I used angel hair pasta (that is what we had) and added one small shallot that I sauteed with the garlic and added a little white wine. I did use the red pepper flakes because we like a little zing in our food. Definately one I will make again. Made for Bargain Basement Tag game December 2010.
