Served with a fresh salad, I think this is a perfect summer weekday meal. It comes together very fast if you prepare all the ingredients beforehand. (note: typo in wine amount has been corrected - 1/4 cup, not 1 1/4 cup - yowza, that'd be a lot of wine!)

Ingredients

4 serv.
  • angel hair pasta↗1 lb
  • fresh basil↗1⁄2 cup

    chopped

  • parmesan cheese↗1⁄2 cup

    freshly grated

  • extra virgin olive oil↗2 tablespoons
  • garlic cloves↗4 -8

    finely minced

  • dry white wine↗1⁄4 cup
  • fresh lemon juice↗1⁄2 cup
  • vine-ripe tomatoes↗2 1⁄2 cups

    seeded and diced medium

  • coarse salt↗1 teaspoon
  • fresh ground black pepper↗

    (to taste)

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the pasta in several quarts of salted water (keep an eye on it - angel hair cooks a lot faster than other pasta and you don't want it mushy). Place it in a large serving bowl, add the basil and Parmesan cheese and toss to mix.

  2. 2

    While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the garlic for a minute or so until it *just* begins to change color. Add the wine and cook until it has been reduced by about half (2-4 minutes). Stir in the lemon juice and tomatoes and remove the sauce from heat until the pasta is ready.

  3. 3

    Pour lemon-tomato sauce over pasta mixture, add salt and pepper to taste and toss to mix. Serve with extra Parmesan on the side, if desired.
