Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
8 ounces Sun Gold or cherry tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
6 ounces capellini, spaghetti, or bucatini
3/4 cup finely grated Pecorino or Parmesan
8 medium fresh basil leaves, torn into pieces
Toasted breadcrumbs (for garnish; optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes, garlic, and red pepper flakes, season with salt, and cook, covered slightly and swirling pan often, until tomatoes blister and burst, 10-12 minutes. Press down on tomatoes to release their juices. Remove pan from heat and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a 5 quart pot. Season with salt; add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until about 2 minutes before tender. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking water.
  • Transfer pasta to skillet with tomatoes; set over high heat. Add 1/2 cup pasta water. Cook, stirring and tossing often, until sauce thickens and begins to coat the pasta, about 1 minute. Stir in remaining oil, cheese, and half the basil and toss until sauce coats pasta and pasta is al dente. (Add more pasta water if sauce seems dry.) Add remaining basil, season with salt, and serve with breadcrumbs, if desired.

I modified this recipe to make it low-carb by using zucchini noodles instead of pasta. It was a great way to enjoy the delicious flavors of the dish without all the carbs.

I made this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free pasta and tamari instead of soy sauce. It turned out just as delicious as the original version. Highly recommend!

I'm not usually a fan of pasta dishes, but this one changed my mind. The sun gold tomatoes were perfectly roasted and burst with flavor in every bite. The sauce was also incredibly flavorful and creamy. Highly recommend!
