2 c milk
2 3/4 c chicken broth
1 lb spaghetti
4 c (20 oz.) cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 - 1 c fresh basil leaves, torn into pieces
1/2 c freshly grated Parmesan cheese
In a 5-6 qt pot, combine the milk, broth, spaghetti, garlic, oregano, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and gently simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring often so the pasta doesn't stick. Adjust the heat accordingly, especially at the end. Cook until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Turn off the heat, stir in the basil leaves and the Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately. (Or let it rest for 5-10 minutes to give the sauce time to thicken.)
