This is probably by far the easiest pasta dish you will ever make in your entire life. It’s literally a 5-min prep, and then everything gets tossed right in the pan, including the uncooked spaghetti. Let the water come to a boil and that is it.

Stir in your freshly grated Parmesan (freshly grated is key here) and top with additional Parm, if desired.
