Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Allow the tomatoes to cook down until they release their juices and start to soften, about 8-10 minutes.

  4. Once the tomatoes have broken down, add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet. Toss to combine, allowing the pasta to soak up the flavors of the tomatoes and garlic.

  5. Stir in the fresh basil leaves and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the basil is wilted.

  6. Remove the skillet from heat and serve the Neapolitan spaghetti hot, topped with a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
