Bring a pot with water to a boil and cook your pasta according to the package instructions

While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a big pan over medium-high heat. Add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan 

Once the olive oil is hot, add the minced garlic and the finely sliced chillies. Cook them for 1 minute

After 1 minute, add the cherry tomatoes and cook everything for another minute or until the cherry tomatoes begin to soften 

Add 2 1/2 – 3 cups of hot pasta water to the pan and give everything a good stir

Cook the sauce for about 2 minutes

Add a big handful of basil leaves to the sauce and season it with some salt and pepper. Stir well

Mix in your cooked and drained pasta

Add another 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pasta and season it with more salt and pepper if needed

Enjoy!
