Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
2
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1–2 minutes. Watch closely, as the garlic can brown quickly.
