1
Prepare the Zucchini Noodles
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create noodles from the zucchini. Set aside.
2
Make the Spicy Tomato Sauce
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
3
Add Tomatoes and Season
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Allow to simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Cook the Zucchini Noodles
In another pan, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a bit of olive oil for about 2-3 minutes, just until they are tender but still firm.
5
Combine and Serve
Toss the zucchini noodles with the spicy tomato sauce. Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
