Cook pasta to al dente in well salted boiling water according to package directions, about 9 minutes.
While pasta is cooking, wash and dice the tomatoes; wash and slice the onions thinly.
Place tomatoes with their juices, onions, basil, garlic, oil, salt and pepper, to taste in a large bowl.
When pasta is done, remove from heat; drain, reserving a little cooking water; pour hot pasta onto the other ingredients; toss; grate in fresh Parmesan cheese as desired; toss to coat. If needed for the sauce, stir in a bit of reserved pasta water, as needed.
If you would like it browned on top, place in the preheated broiler for a bit.
Serve with a little thinly sliced basil and freshly shaved or grated Parmesan cheese, to garnish.
**Serve with grilled chicken or garlic shrimp, to make it even more satisfying.
4-6 servings.
