Preparation

Start by preparing the ingredients: cook the spaghetti as per package instructions until al dente, then drain. Peel and cook the shrimp if not already prepared. Halve the cherry tomatoes, mince the garlic, and chop the parsley for garnish.

Making the Creamy and Tomato Sauces

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chili flakes, cooking until garlic is fragrant. Add cherry tomatoes and cook until softened. Prepare two separate sauces: one creamy sauce by adding cream to part of the tomato and garlic mixture, and a pure tomato sauce with the remaining tomato mixture.

Combining Ingredients

Toss the cooked spaghetti with the shrimp, and both sauces. Simmer everything together for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Finishing Touches

Serve the pasta garnished with grated cheese and chopped parsley. Optionally, adjust seasoning and add more cheese as preferred.
