Cooking Instructions
Cook the Pasta
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 pasta.
Sauté the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes.
Combine Ingredients
Add the cherry tomatoes and cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the shrimp. Toss everything together, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach your desired sauce consistency. Stir in the chopped basil, salt, and black pepper.
Serve
Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and additional basil if desired.
