- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 10 fresh basil leaves, torn

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Heat oil in an oven-proof skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat. Add garlic, onion and red pepper flakes and sauté until the onions are translucent.
