Preparation

Step 1

1. In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Add the shallots and sweat for 1 minute. Add the chiles and garlic and sweat for about 1 longer, or until the shallots are soft but have not taken on any color.

2. Add the wine and crab and cook for about 1 minute, or until the crab is warmed through and the wine has reduced slightly. Add the butter to mount.

3. Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the tagliatelle for 1-2 minutes, or until just cooked. Add the pasta to the crab mixture. Toss together, season to taste with salt and pepper. Using a roasting fork, twirl the pasta around the fork and slip onto a plate. Top with any remaining crab and sauce in the pan.
