Directions:

  • In a large skillet place the linguine in the center and on either side of it make two piles of tomatoes, onion, Parmesan rinds, garlic and chili. Break up the basil leaves and place them all around the pot.
  • Drizzle the olive oil on top of the entire thing and add the salt and pepper.
  • Finally, pour in the water and turn the heat up to high, we want the water to boil.
  • Let it cook for 10 minutes watching it carefully and stirring occasionally.
  • 10 minutes later you’re done. Add some freshly cracked pepper on top and grate some cheese over the pasta and you’re ready to enjoy it!
