Description

An almost absurdly simple baked pasta — uncooked rigatoni or penne tossed in olive oil, combined with canned tomatoes, and baked covered for an hour, stirring occasionally, with Parmesan sprinkled on for the final 15 minutes. No boiling pasta water required; the oven does all the work.

Ingredients
  • 3/4 Cups Olive oil
  • 1 lb. Rigatoni or penne pasta, uncooked
  • 2 28-oz. cans Organic tomatoes
  • 1/2 Cups Parmesan cheese, grated
InstructionsPreheat oven to 400°F. Place the oil in a bowl with the uncooked pasta. Stir until well coated. Let stand 20 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes to the pasta mixture and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Place the mixture in a large baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake, stirring every few minutes with a wooden spoon, for 60 minutes. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the pasta for the last 15 minutes of baking.

Note

Letting the oiled, uncooked pasta stand for 20 minutes before adding the tomatoes allows the pasta to absorb the oil evenly, which helps it cook through properly in the oven without boiling water.
