Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add sliced zucchinis to the skillet, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened and golden, stirring occasionally.
- Combine the drained spaghetti with the zucchini in the skillet. Pour in some reserved pasta water and toss gently over medium heat to create a creamy sauce.
- Stir in grated Pecorino Romano cheese and chopped basil, seasoning with salt and pepper. Toss over low heat for 1-2 minutes to meld flavors.
- Serve the creamy spaghetti immediately, garnishing with extra basil and cheese if desired.
