Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

  3. 3

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the tomatoes. Toss well to combine. If the mixture seems dry, add some reserved pasta water to achieve desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Stir in fresh basil leaves, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. Serve immediately, garnished with extra basil and parmesan if desired.
