Provided by bakeaholic

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb. angel hair pasta
4 cups heavy cream
2 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground pepper
1 lb. jumbo lump crabmeat
2 tbsp. truffle oil
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
3 tbsp. snipped chives

Steps:

1. Bring a large heavy pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook, stirring to separate the strands of pasta, until just barely al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain in colander. 2. Combine the cream, basil, garlic, salt and pepper in the same pot. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Add the pasta, toss to coat. Add the crabmeat and 2 tablespoons of the truffle oil, stir gently so as to not break up the lumps of crabmeat, and cook for 1 minute. Add the cheese and gently stir until blended. 3. Divide the pasta among six or eight pasta bowls. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of truffle oil over each serving and add more parmesan. Garnish with chives and serve immediately.
