I really enjoyed making and eating this recipe. Very easy and simple to make with not a lot of ingredients. I loved the garlic and chili caribe (mine is from New Mexico) combination. It was spicy but the NM chiles are quite a bit hotter. The flavors were all nicely melded. I did omit the anchovies, but I don't think that it affected the recipe. Thanks so much for sharing this tasty recipe.

Love this dish, it is quick and easy. A great light pasta dish. However I don't use the anchovies, I use shrimp. Any meat works well with the garlic and oil combo.
