Here’s how to cook Tomato Butter Pasta in the microwave using ONE dish, in less than 20 minutes.
First, break the pasta in half and place it in a microwave-safe glass dish, like the Anyday dish, along with enough water to cover the pasta completely. Give it a gentle toss to keep the pasta from sticking together.
Next, sprinkle in some salt, add a pat of butter, and toss in some chopped onion right on top. This is where the flavors start to build!
Pop it into the microwave, uncovered, and cook for 14-15 minutes. We’re aiming for slightly al dente pasta. Don’t worry if there’s a little water left—grab your tongs and toss the pasta to mix it all up
Now, stir in your favorite tomato sauce. If the pasta is too hard or the sauce needs a little extra warmth, cover the dish with a tight-fitting, vented lid (the Anyday lid), and heat it up for another 1-2 minutes.
For the final touch, garnish with fresh basil and a generous sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
And there you have it — Tomato Butter Pasta, the perfect weeknight dinner!
