Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare an outdoor charcoal grill for medium-high heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place dry spaghetti on the hot charcoal grill, and cook, tossing often with tongs until the pasta is toasted to a light brown, about 4 minutes. Remove and set aside. (4 minutes)

03

Step

Add olive oil to a pan, and set over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add tomato paste and sauté for about 1 minute; pour in broth. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Raise heat to medium-high and bring broth to a simmer. Add salt and grilled spaghetti, and use tongs to move spaghetti back and forth until it softens enough to be covered by the broth. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Cook, stirring, until spaghetti is as tender as you like; it will take a few minutes longer than package directions indicate. If pan gets too dry, add another splash of broth. (10-15 minutes)

06

Step

Reduce heat to low; stir in butter and basil. Turn off heat and stir in cheese. Serve immediately. (2 minutes)

For a deeper smoky flavor, use mesquite charcoal.
Don't overcrowd the grill when toasting the spaghetti; work in batches if necessary.
Vegetarian? Use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end for brightness.
