6 Minute Meal & Deal: Amis Pasta with Chili Flakes: Alicia Vitarelli reports during Action News Mornings on May 2, 2018.

CENTER CITY (WPVI) -- In this week's 6-minute meal and a deal, Alicia Vitarelli gets in the kitchen at Amis for a chef favorite.



The 6 Minute Meal:



Amis Executive Chef Brad Spence's favorite Sunday dinner: Pasta with Garlic & Chili Flakes



Ingredients:


16 oz pasta of choice (Fresh will cook faster; the smaller the pasta, the faster it cooks)


2 cloves garlic


Olive Oil


Chili flakes


White Wine


1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese



Directions:


Cook pasta in boiling water until it's 80% finished


Heat oil in pan on medium high heat


Slice 2 cloves of garlic paper thin


Add garlic to pan and cook until it gets a little color and you start to smell it



Add chili flakes to taste


Take the pan off the heat and add a splash of white wine


Return pan to stove and add a little pasta water (the starch will make your sauce creamier)


Sprinkle in half the cheese


Add pasta to pan to finish cooking


Plate and top with the rest of cheese


Top with more chili flakes, again to taste


Serve & Enjoy



Chef Tip: Get creative and try different variations like black pepper and cheese


The dish at Amis Restaurant uses dried fried peppers you can buy at any deli.



The Deal:


Mention you saw this segment on 6abc and they'll take $6 dollars off your tab at Amis in Midtown and Bar Amis at the Navy Yard. Offer good through Wednesday, May 9th.
