Ingredients for Bucatini Pomodorini

Method

Directions for Bucatini Pomodorini

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bucatini

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bucatini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the rest and set the pasta aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the San Marzano cherry tomatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, until they start to blister and release their juices.

  3. 3

    Combine

    Add the cooked bucatini to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach your desired sauce consistency. Stir in the fresh basil, salt, and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the bucatini and top with slices of prosciutto. Garnish with additional basil if desired and serve immediately.
