Ingredients

  • 12 oz spaghetti
  • 16 oz mushrooms
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup parsley
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the 12 oz spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 9-11 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

  2. 2

    While the pasta cooks, slice the 16 oz mushrooms and mince the 3 garlic cloves.

  3. 3

    Heat the 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the mushrooms in a single layer and cook without stirring until browned, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with the 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

  5. 5

    Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the mushrooms. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water a splash at a time until the sauce coats the pasta, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Stir in the 0.25 cup chopped parsley and serve immediately.
