Zucchini Noodles alla Puttanesca

goop

Can’t get enough zucchini noodles? This quick and pungent sauce (said to be named after Italian “ladies of the night”) complements them perfectly.

1. Heat olive oil, anchovies, garlic cloves, and chili flakes in a large sauté pan over medium low heat. Cook for about 2 minutes, until anchovies are melted and garlic is fragrant.

2. Add canned tomatoes and a large pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. Add kalamata olives, capers, sugar (optional), and lemon zest. Turn off the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. Serve over zucchini noodles with parmesan cheese on the side.
