Directions

1. Adjust oven rack to upper middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees.

3. Stir in tomatoes, water, and pasta. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta begins to soften, about 7 minutes.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until pasta is al dente, about 7 minutes.
5. Stir in olives, capers, and basil. Sprinkle with cheese and bake until cheese begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve.
