Garlic Parmesan Zucchetti is a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional pasta. Made with fresh zucchini, this dish is light, flavorful, and easy to prepare, making it perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a satisfying side dish.
- Use a spiralizer to make evenly sized zucchini noodles, which will cook more uniformly.
- Blot the zucchini noodles with paper towels before cooking to remove excess moisture. This prevents the dish from becoming too watery.
- Don't overcook the zucchini noodles as they tend to become soggy. Aim for tender-crisp.
- Add a touch of red pepper flakes for a slight kick if you enjoy a bit of heat in your dishes.
- For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese rather than pre-grated options.
- Serve immediately after cooking to enjoy the best texture and flavor of the dish.
Enjoy your Garlic Parmesan Zucchetti as a nutritious and low-carb alternative to pasta. Its delightful combination of garlic, parmesan, and zucchini is sure to make it a favorite at your dining table. Remember, the key to this dish is to not overcook the zucchini, keeping it tender but firm for the best texture.
