- Finish with cheese: Once the pasta is tender and the sauce is thick, remove the pan from heat. Stir in the grated sharp cheddar cheese until fully melted and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve: Spoon into bowls and serve hot. Garnish with extra shredded cheese, chopped parsley, or crushed red pepper flakes for extra kick if desired.
