Preparation

Step 1

Bring 8 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot; add 2 Tbsp. salt. Add the pasta, stirring until the water returns to a boil; cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, and drain pasta in a colander. Transfer to a large bowl.
Reserve some parsley and chives for garnish; add the rest to pasta along with the red pepper flakes, oil and reserved cooking water. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper; serve immediately, dividing among four pasta bowls. Top with poached eggs; garnish with reserved parsley and chives.
