Whip up a delicious pasta with just 7 ingredients!
Ingredients:
  • 400g penne rigate
  • 2 (about 340g) chorizo sausages
  • 4 medium (about 480g) green zucchinis, coarsely grated
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 250g fresh ricotta, crumbled
  • 62.50 ml loosely packed fresh basil leaves, shredded
Instructions:
  • 1. Boil the pasta in a generously salted large saucepan until al dente following the package instructions. Save 250ml (1 cup) of the cooking liquid. Put the pasta back in the pan and cover to keep it warm.
  • Heat oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook chorizo sausages until golden brown, about 4 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Cut sausages into thin slices using a sharp knife. Reserve 1 tablespoon of oil in the pan.
  • In the same pan, warm up the reserved oil over medium heat. Add zucchini and garlic, cook for about 7 minutes or until the zucchini becomes tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Combine the pasta, reserved cooking liquid, chorizo sausage, ricotta, and basil, gently tossing until heated through and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the pasta in individual bowls and enjoy right away.
