Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 garlic clove, sliced thin
- 1/2 a large zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch-thick half moons
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons basil, chopped
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt
- 1/2 pound pound of pasta
- Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons of salt.
- Heat olive oil in a 12 to 14-inch sauté pan. Add the zucchini & cook stirring occasional, until soft. Season lightly with salt. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant. Remove from the heat.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta and toss into the pan with the zucchini. Place the pan back on the heat. Add the tomatoes, season with salt, and cook about 1-2 minutes.
- Add pasta to the pan and stir to combine. Add basil and a splash of olive oil (just enough to lightly coat the pasta).
- Spoon into serving bowls and serve with grated parmesan cheese.
