For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving. Grated Parmesan cheese is a classic accompaniment to this dish, but it's also delicious without it for a lighter flavor. Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference. A little goes a long way! Using high-quality extra virgin olive oil is crucial for the best flavor.
