Preparation
Step 1
Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 475. 2 Combine oil, garlic, pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in 12-inch ovensafe nonstick skillet and saute over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. (If your skillet is not ovensafe, transfer the pasta mixture into a shallow 2-quart casserole dish before sprinkling with the cheese and baking). 3 Add crushed tomatoes, water, ziti and 1/2 teaspoon salt. 4 Cover and cook, stirring often and adjusting heat as needed to maintain vigorous simmer, until ziti is almost tender, 15-18 minutes. 5 Stir in cream, Parmesan, and basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 6 Sprinkle mozzarella evenly over ziti. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until cheese has melted and browned, about 10 minutes. Serve.
