I made this for dinner, and will make it again. The lemon zest made this recipe, for sure. Gave it a nice, fresh taste!
From Real Simple Magazine
Serves 4
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 shallot, chopped
3 summer squash (green or yellow; about 1 1/2 lbs), thinly sliced
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 Tbsp grated lemon zest
1/2 cup grated percorino or Parmesan (2 oz) plus more for serving
2 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
*Don't forget to save some pasta water
1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water; drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the squash and 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper to the skillet. Cook, tossing often, until the vegetables are just beginning to soften, 4-5 minutes. Add the cream and lemon zest and cook until the vegetables are tender and the cream is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
3. Add the squash mixture, percorino, 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking water, and 1/2 tsp salt to the pasta and toss gently to coat (add more cooking water if the pasta seems dry). Serve sprinkled with the chives and additional percorino.
wow that sounds really good
