My DH and I made this for lunch today. It was outstanding! Very easy to prepare, with really nice flavors and a perfect amount of heat. The only things that we did differently, were to substitute champagne vinegar for the white wine vinegar (as I was out of the latter and figured the champagne vinegar would be close enough) and I used Trader Joe's spinach and chives fettucine noodles. Also, as the recipe did not specify, after separating the garlic into cloves, we then chopped it up. We garnished with plenty of fresh parmesan-reggiano cheese. This is definitely a keeper and we will be making this again. Thank you for posting!
