Ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti or linguine
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 medium onion diced
- 28 ounces canned san marzano tomatoes
- 12 large fresh basil leaves torn into pieces
- large pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ½ cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to the package directions. While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, deep pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic and onion. Cook until onion is softened, approximately 4-5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes with their juice. Crush the tomatoes using a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon.
- Add the basil, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Cook for ten minutes or until the tomatoes are well softened.
- Add the hot, cooked pasta to the pan and toss or stir to combine.
- Top with Parmigiano-Reggiano and a little more fresh basil.
Notes
- To store leftovers: allow the pasta to cool completely. Transfer pasta and sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for 3-4 days. Reheat over low heat in a pan with a splash of water or broth.
- To freeze, allow the pasta and sauce to cool completely. Portion into individual serving sizes or family-sized portions based on your needs. Leave a bit of space at the top of the container to account for expansion during freezing. Transfer to the freezer and store for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a bit of water or sauce to bring back the original consistency.
