1
Boil Water
In a large pot, bring water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water.
2
Cook Ziti
Add the ziti pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
3
Drain Pasta
Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.

4
Melt Butter
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 cup of unsalted butter and allow it to melt completely.
5
Add Garlic
Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
6
Combine Ingredients
Add the cooked ziti directly into the skillet with the butter sauce. Toss to ensure the pasta is well coated.
7
Season
Stir in the chopped parsley, black pepper to taste, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly until the cheese is melted and the pasta is evenly coated.
