Serves 4

1/4 cup olive oil
2 large garlic cloves sliced thin
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 large basil leaves, chopped
salt to taste
1 pound spaghettini pasta
freshly grated Parmagiano-Reggiano cheese for serving
1. Add olive oil and garlic to a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook until garlic is lightly browned, then add the sliced tomatoes, red pepper flake, basil, and salt.
2. Saute the tomatoes until they are softened and have started to release their juices, about 5 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, bring a pot of liberally salted water to a boil, add pasta and cook until al dente.
4. Strain pasta and transfer to the saute pan with the sauce and toss until completely coated.
5. Dish out into individual serving bowls and serve with grated Parmagiano-Reggiano.
