Ingredients
-
3 pieces
Medium thickness zucchinis, spiralized (or julienned into long strips on a mandolin)
-
1 cup
Grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
-
1 tablespoon
Olive oil
-
2 pieces
(cloves) Garlic, chopped
-
1/3 cup
Frozen corn
-
2 tablespoons
Sundried tomatoes (I use the ones from Trader Joes in oil, but you can use any brand)
-
3 pinches
Salt
-
2 pinches
Crushed red pepper
Directions
-
Heat oven to 350F. Place tomatoes mixed with 1/2 the chopped garlic, olive oil, a pinch of salt and fresh cracked pepper into an oven safe dish. Roast tomatoes for 12-13 minutes.
-
Heat a pan and add sundried tomatoes with oil.
-
Add garlic to this and saute for 1-2 minutes.
-
Next, add frozen corn and saute for an additional 4-5 minutes on medium flame (or until corn is cooked through).
-
Add zucchini to pan along with salt and crushed red pepper (according to taste), and mix with tongs lifting zucchini strands to make sure the corn mixture gets incorporated; cook together for 2-3 minutes for a more al dente texture, or 4-5 minutes for a softer spaghetti texture.
-
Plating: Place zucchini spaghetti into a plate or bowl and place half of the roasted tomatoes on top of each zucchini portion.
-
Garnish with a few torn basil leaves if desired and a few shaves of Parmesan or Grana Padano cheese.
