Hot and Naked Sauce

When making this sauce, I suggest you cook this sauce slowly so the raw taste of the garlic cooks out completely. This garlic butter would taste delicious on garlic bread. (Yields 2 to 3 servings.)

Yield: 2 to 3 servings

In a small pot, melt butter on low. Add olive oil. Do not cook the butter on high heat, it will brown and then burn. Chop garlic finely, and add to the pot. Simmer the butter sauce on low for at least 20 minutes. You want the raw taste of the garlic to cook out completely. Add about 1 tablespoon of the freshly chopped basil to the butter sauce and mix well. Add 1/4 cup of the Asiago cheese into the butter sauce about 3 minutes before serving.

Cook pasta according to package directions, and drain. In a large bowl combine butter sauce, and the pasta and mix well. Place pasta onto plates, and garnish with remainingAsiago cheese and chopped basil.
