Creamy Zucchini Sauce

dry pasta

½ pounds zucchini

extra virgin olive oil

sweet onion diced,

red pepper flakes

garlic,

salt

black pepper

basil,

oregano,

mint,

heavy cream

Romano cheese

Cook the pasta according to package directions and reserve one cup of the pasta water.

Cut the zucchinis in half the long way and remove seeds and ends. Shred on large holes of a box grater or use the shredder blade of a food processor. Set aside.

While pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add olive oil and once hot, add the onion and saute for three minutes.

Add the pepper flakes and garlic and cook one minute then add the zucchini, salt, pepper, half the basil, half the oregano and half the mint. Bring up to a bubble, cover and reduce heat to medium low and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and making sure the mixture doesn’t stick.

After 15 minutes, remove the cover and add the cream and the remaining herbs and bring up to heat.

Add the Romano cheese and if too thick, add some pasta water to thin the sauce, then serve either mixed with the pasta or served on the side.

This was easy and amazing! Everyone in the family loved it. I added chicken and used my immersion blender to make it real creamy. Thanks!

Great recipe! I am using this as the sauce over chicken and broccoli orecchiette.

I made it!  But I had to substitute the zucchini for squash   due to not having any zucchini.  I was quite pleased with the outcome.  I can hardly wait for my garden to start producing
