Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until evenly coated. Sprinkle in the grated Parmesan cheese, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 1 to 2 more minutes, stirring gently, until the cheese melts and the flavors come together. Remove from the heat, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
