Mezze maniche proteiche aglio olio e peperoncino

Protein half sleeves with courgettes

20 minutes Easy

Ingredients:

  • 100g of Mezze Maniche Healthy ProteINS
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 fresh chili pepper
  • 3 sprigs of parsley
  • 2 knobs of butter
  • Extra virgin olive oil (as needed)
  • Salt (as needed)

Preparation:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it once it reaches boiling. Meanwhile, thinly slice the garlic clove and chili pepper into julienne strips.

Pour the extra virgin olive oil into a large pan and heat it over low heat with the garlic, chili pepper, parsley, and a pinch of salt.

Let the mixture sauté until golden. In the meantime, cook the pasta in the salted boiling water and drain it al dente (12 minutes), reserving a small amount of the cooking water.

Transfer the pasta directly into the pan, turn off the heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water along with one knob of butter.

Plate the pasta, then return the sauce to the pan and cook for a couple of minutes over low heat with an additional knob of butter before mixing it with the pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley and a drizzle of raw extra virgin olive oil. Enjoy!

Buon appetito!
