Pasta with 15 Minute Burst Cherry Tomatoes

 

Ingredients:

• 1 pound pasta
• Kosher salt
• ½ cup olive oil
• 2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 3 pints of cherry tomatoes
• ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• Pinch of sugar
• 1 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil
• Freshly grated Parmesan (for serving)

Preparation:

 

1. Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a 12" skillet or wide heavy saucepan over medium-high. Add garlic, then tomatoes, pepper, sugar, and 1 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes burst and release their juices to form a sauce, 6–8 minutes.
