- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp oregano

## Instructions

1. Slice your shallots nice and thin and measure out your seasonings.

5. While the shallots are cooking, bring a big pot of salted water to a boil and cook your pasta until al dente.
6. Drain pasta, but save some pasta water.
7. Once the shallots are soft and sweet, stir in your minced fresh garlic and all the seasonings.
8. Let the garlic and seasonings bloom for about a minute.
9. Add the chili crisp and give it another quick sauté.
10. Pour in the cream (or coconut milk).
11. Stir in the soy sauce if using.
12. Let it simmer for a few minutes to thicken.
13. Add in the grated Parmesan and stir.
14. Toss your pasta in the sauce until fully coated, adding splashes of reserved pasta water as needed to get that perfect silky consistency.
