Garlic Crab Angel Hair

Ingredients:

• 4 oz lump crab meat
• 1/2 pound angel hair pasta
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
• Salt and black pepper
• Red pepper flakes

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt the water generously, cook pasta to al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water.

2. Meanwhile in a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat and add olive oil (adding the oil brings up the cooking temperature of the butter so the butter doesn’t burn). Add garlic, stir for 30 seconds. Add crab and season with salt, pepper and chili flakes. Stir to combine. Add pasta, pasta water and parsley. Mix together and serve!
