Ingredients

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 3 Tbsp capers
  • ¼ tsp Black Urfa Chili
  • 1 sprig thyme, plus leaves for garnish, or 1 tsp Flowering Hyssop Thyme
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 Tbsp caper brine
  • 1 pound spaghetti
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Toasted breadcrumbs, for garnish

Directions

  1. In a 12-inch high-sided skillet, heat the oil over medium heat with garlic. Cook until the garlic is lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then add the capers, Black Urfa Chili and thyme.

  2. Pour in the chicken stock, water and caper brine, and add the spaghetti. Raise the heat to medium-high. Cook until the stock has reduced into a sauce and the pasta is al dente, 12 to 14 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt.

  3. Divide between bowls and garnish with thyme leaves and breadcrumbs, then serve.
