  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 cup olive oil
  • salt to taste
  • freshly cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions:
  • Fill a large pot with salty water and bring to a vigorous boil. Add penne and cook uncovered for roughly 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the penne is al dente.
