How to Make Angel Hair With Tomatoes Basil Garlic

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add angel hair pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
  4. Add halved cherry tomatoes, chopped basil, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until tomatoes have softened slightly and released their juices.
  5. Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the tomato sauce.
  6. Add chicken broth to the skillet and toss everything together to combine. The pasta should be coated evenly in the sauce.
  7. Stir in 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves (optional).
