Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and reserve ½ cup of pasta water.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the Calabrian chilis and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour in the vodka sauce and stir to combine. Allow it to simmer for 3-5 minutes to heat through. Add salt and pepper if you like.
Once the pasta is cooked, transfer the noodles to the sauce, tossing gently to coat. Slowly mix in the pasta water ¼ cup at a time until you’ve reached a glossy consistency.
Stir in the grated parmesan cheese, then divide the pasta between bowls and garnish with fresh parsley and more parmesan cheese.

Notes

If you want a creamier texture, you can stir in a little heavy cream or half and half.
