Spaghettini With Garlic, Olive Oil And Poblano Chile

Directions

1. Cook the pasta in boiling water with the salt for 7 min or possibly till the spaghettini is al dente. While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil and saute/fry the garlic for 2 to 3 min. Stir in the chile, parsley, and lemon juice and cook for 2 to 3 more min.
2. Drain the pasta. Using tongs, place pasta on serving plates. Spoon equal amounts of the garlic-chile sauce over each plate, and serve at once.
3. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: I like to make this my main course and top it off with fresh fruit such as a ripe pear and some great Jarlsberg cheese. It also makes a terrific first course, followed by a rich fish such as tuna poached in tomatoes and topped with olives and anchovies.
