Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Place a large skillet on the stove over medium heat. Add in the olive oil and butter. Place a large pot of water on the stove as well and fill it with water to cook your pasta.
Roughly chop 6-7 cloves of garlic, dice half a yellow onion, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Once the olive oil and butter are hot, add in the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. Then add in the yellow onion and cook until translucent. Follow this up by adding in the cherry tomatoes and cook until they begin to soften. Season with salt and pepper.
By this point, the water should be boiling, so begin to cook your spaghetti.
Into your skillet, add in the tomato paste and cook for 2-3 minutes. Pour in a cup of chicken broth to deglaze the pan and let simmer. Then pour in your heavy cream. Stir until combined.
When you have 1-2 minutes left on the pasta, add your parmesan (freshly grated is preferred here!) to the skillet along with the fresh basil.
Once the pasta is done, drain the water and add the pasta straight into the sauce.
Serve with your favorite protein (check out my Cast Iron Grilled Shrimp for the perfect pairing) and top generously with more grated parmesan and fresh basil.
