Preparation
Cook the Pasta
In a large pot of salted boiling water, add the pasta. Cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.
Mix Ingredients
Add the red chili flakes, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir in the cooked pasta and toss everything together. If the mixture seems dry, add a little reserved pasta water until you reach the desired consistency.
Serve
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh basil. Plate the pasta and grate the Parmesan cheese on top. Garnish with additional basil if desired.
