While the pasta cooks, gently heat 3 tbsp of olive oil with the chilli and garlic in a pan that will hold the pasta comfortably.Cook the chilli and garlic gently until they start to sizzle, then turn up the heat and add the white wine. Simmer until the oil and wine have come together; remove from the heat and add the brown crab meat mixing to a thick sauce.
