Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Boil pasta in salted water until 1 minute shy of al dente, ~7 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Drain pasta, reserving 0.5 cup pasta water. Return pasta to pot off heat.

  3. Step 3

    Toss pasta with feta, cherry tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and red pepper flakes. Add 0.25 cup pasta water; stir to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer to a 9x13 baking dish. Bake uncovered until feta softens and tomatoes collapse, ~12 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Stir gently; add more pasta water if the sauce looks dry. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

  6. Step 6

    Divide between bowls. Top with fresh basil. Serve hot.
