Caramelized Onion and Garlic Spaghetti
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- 2Add the thinly sliced onions to the skillet and caramelize for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and jammy. Add a splash of water if they start sticking.
- 3While the onions are caramelizing, boil a pot of salted water and cook the pasta until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving some pasta water.
- 4Once onions are deeply golden, stir in minced garlic and all seasonings (paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning) and let bloom for a minute.
- 5Add chili crisp and sauté for one minute.
- 6Pour in the room temperature cream or coconut milk and let it simmer for a few minutes.
- 7Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir.
- 8Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to coat.
- 9Use the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed, aiming for a silky consistency.
- 10Serve hot with an extra spoon of chili crisp and fresh parsley if desired.
