  • Add in the chicken stock, spaghetti sauce, spaghetti, and red pepper flakes, immersing the spaghetti slowly so it doesn't break. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently to keep the spaghetti from sticking.

Notes

  • I always like using chicken stock or broth for this recipe, as it adds a great depth of flavor. However, beef and vegetable broth work out great too!
  • For added veggies, try adding mushrooms, sliced bell peppers, peas, or spinach.
  • If you're not a fan of spaghetti noodles, this recipe works great with other shapes of pasta! Just make sure to check the doneness of the pasta as it may cook more slowly than spaghetti.
  • A splash of red wine in the sauce will add tons of flavor. Give it a try!
