    | 1. Because this recipe is simple, it all depends on quality; don't skimp on any of the ingredients-- use good quality extra-virgin olive oil, fresh shrimp, fresh parsley, etc. | 2. And, yes, you read it right-- 14 cloves of garlic. | 3. Also note that you're not going to actually consume all that olive oil, a lot of it will pool into the bottom of the serving bowl-- of course, if you want to sop that lovely garlicky oil up with fresh bread, who am I to stop you! | 4. First, have everything ready-- shrimp peeled, parsley and garlic chopped, etc. | 5. Next, put a LARGE pot of water on, add about 2 tbsp salt to it, and get it on the heat to boil. | 6. Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat oil over low heat and cook the garlic, salt and pepper flakes, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until the garlic is golden, but NOT browned. | 7. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp; stirfry for about 3 minutes or until the shrimp have turned a light pink; don't overcook or the shrimp will be tough. | 8. Meanwhile, your spaghetti should be cooked al dente; drain it well then return to the pot. | 9. Pour the shrimp mixture over the cooked spaghetti, add the chopped parsley, and toss well. | 10. Serve immediately in a large, pre-warmed, shallow serving bowl. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
