This Caramelized Garlic & Tomato Angel Hair is a delightful weeknight meal that combines sweet, caramelized garlic with vibrant tomatoes for a rich sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8–10 cloves fresh garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 pint (around 2 cups) cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  • 8 ounces angel hair pasta
  • 1/4 cup good quality extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • A generous handful of fresh basil or parsley (or both)
  • 1/4 cup non-alcohol white cooking alternative or vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. First, let’s get everything ready. Thinly slice all your garlic cloves. Halve your cherry or grape tomatoes. Get your fresh basil or parsley roughly chopped. Measure out your non-alcohol alternative or broth.
  2. Fill a large pot with water, add a generous amount of salt, and bring it to a rolling boil.
  3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook for about 10-15 minutes, until golden brown.
  4. Add the halved cherry or grape tomatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Pour in the non-alcohol alternative or vegetable broth. Let it simmer for a minute or two, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  6. Once your water is boiling, add the angel hair. Cook according to package directions, usually only 2-3 minutes, until al dente.
  7. Using tongs, transfer the cooked angel hair directly from the pot into the skillet with your sauce. Add about 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water.
  8. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in most of your fresh basil or parsley. Serve immediately, garnished with remaining herbs and cheese.

Notes

  • This dish is quick to prepare and can be on the table in under 45 minutes.
  • Feel free to adjust the herbs based on your preference.
  • Reserve some pasta water to help the sauce stick to the pasta.
