Ingredients

  • 10 ounces spaghetti
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (5 ounce) package arugula, torn
  • 2 tablespoons shaved Parmesan cheese, or more to taste

Directions

Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.

Step 2
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook garlic until translucent and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes. Increase heat, cook, and stir until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3
Remove skillet from heat and mix in arugula. Mix in cooked spaghetti and drizzle with olive oil. Serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.
