Rigatoni with Zucchini Sauce
From chef_irish 15 years agoIngredients
- 1 pound rigatoni or other short pasta shopping list
- 1 1/3 pounds zucchini shopping list
- 4 tablespoons each olive oil and unsalted butter (or 1/2 cup olive oil) shopping list
- 1 clove garlic, crushed shopping list
- 2 tablespoons minced parsley shopping list
- salt & pepper to taste shopping list
- 2 ounces ricotta, diluted with 2 tablespoons whole milk (optional) shopping list
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce (optional) shopping list
- Grated parmigiano to be served at the table shopping list
How to make it
- Wash your zucchini, pat them dry, and cut them into thin rounds.
- Heat the oil and butter in a broad, fairly deep skillet and cook the garlic until it is lightly browned, then remove and discard it.
- Add the zucchini and continue cooking, stirring often, over a fairly brisk flame so as to evaporate most of the moisture.
- Once the zucchini have browned nicely reduce the flame and continue cooking, seasoning them to taste with salt and pepper.
- While the zucchini are cooking, bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta.
- Drain the pasta, transfer it to the skillet, toss quickly to combine pasta and zucchini, transfer the mixture to a bowl, and serve at once.
- If you're adding the ricotta or the tomato (I wouldn't add both), do so when you mix the pasta into the zucchini.
