- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Salt the water. Cook pasta according the the package directions. Once the pasta is done, drain and set aside.
- Put 2 or 3 layers of paper towels or a dish towel on a work surface. Working on the paper towels or the towel, shred zucchinis using a box grater holding the zucchini at an angle. Carefully wrap the zucchini up in the towels and squeeze out as much water as possible. I like to do this over the sink.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil to the pan Add minced garlic to the oil. Cook until the garlic is fragrant; 30 seconds to a minute.
- Add the shredded zucchini. Season zucchini with salt and pepper. Saute the zucchini 7 to 10 minutes.
