How to Make Cream Pasta Sauce With Zucchini
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until fragrant and softened.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of sour cream and 1/2 cup of milk. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon.
- Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is heated through and slightly thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add 2 cups of sliced zucchini and cook until just tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Toss the sauce with your cooked pasta (about 1 pound).
- Stir in 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
