For an even more intense flavor, use roasted garlic instead of fresh.
Feel free to experiment with other fresh herbs like oregano, parsley, or mint.
If you don't have farfalle pasta, penne or fusilli would also work well.
For a creamier sauce, stir in a few tablespoons of heavy cream or mascarpone cheese before serving.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes to your liking.
