A simple yet delightful dish that brings the taste of Italy to your table tonight!

1

Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.

2

Once boiling, add 200 grams of spaghetti and cook according to package instructions, usually around 10-12 minutes, until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

3

While the pasta cooks, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

4

Add 3 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

5

Next, add 250 grams of halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices.

6

Stir in 100 grams of sliced black olives and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

7

Once the pasta is done, reserve a cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.

8

Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the tomato and olive mixture. Toss everything together, adding a splash of the reserved pasta water a little at a time if needed to help combine.

9

Remove from heat and mix in fresh basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

10

Serve immediately with an extra drizzle of olive oil if desired.
