Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a baking dish, toss grape or cherry tomatoes with extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt, and Italian seasoning. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until blistered and fragrant.
- While the tomatoes are roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bucatini pasta and a splash of olive oil. Cook until al dente according to package instructions (usually 8-12 minutes). Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain.
- In a large skillet, melt salted butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Lower heat and stir in roasted tomatoes and chopped kale. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until kale wilts. Add white cooking wine and juice of half a lemon, simmering gently.
- Add the drained bucatini to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Gradually sprinkle in Parmesan, stirring until it melts. Use reserved pasta water for desired consistency.
- Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan, fresh basil, and a drizzle of olive oil.
