Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Sprinkle in a little bit of salt. Using a knife, cut an X into the end of each tomato. In a large bowl, add water and ice. Place a few tomatoes into the boiling water for about 1 minute or until you see the skins begin to peel off ever so slightly. Remove them with a slotted spoon, and place in ice water for another minute or until cool. Repeat with remaining tomatoes. Once the tomatoes are cool, remove from ice water and use your fingers to remove the skin by simply peeling it back from the X you created. Then slice and chop the tomatoes and place into another large bowl until ready to cook. In a large dutch oven or casserole pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and saute until the onions become translucent, about 6-8 minutes. Then add celery, carrots, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper; saute until veggies are softened. Next add the tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, and chili pepper flakes and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for about one hour, stirring every 10 minutes or so. During the last 15 minutes stir in zucchini. After sauce is done (the zucchini should be al dente), remove from heat and transfer half of the sauce to a blender or food processor. Try not to get the zucchini in the sauce you're about to blend. Blend/process until smooth then add the pureed sauce back to the pan. Season with more salt and pepper then serve immediately. Notes: If you'd like you can freeze the sauce for up to 2 months in an airtight plastic bag or container.
Tips:
- For a spicier sauce, use more chili peppers or add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- If you don't have zucchini noodles, you can use other types of pasta, such as spaghetti or penne.
- To make the sauce ahead of time, simply cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- When you're ready to serve the sauce, reheat it over medium heat until warmed through. You can also add a little bit of water or broth to thin out the sauce, if needed.
- Garnish the sauce with fresh parsley or basil before serving.
Conclusion:
This arrabbiata sauce with zucchini noodles is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or lunch. The sauce is flavorful and spicy, and the zucchini noodles are a healthy and low-carb alternative to pasta. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini.
Here are some additional tips for making this recipe:
- If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create zucchini noodles.
- You can also use other vegetables, such as carrots or sweet potatoes, to make noodles.
- If you want to make the sauce even more creamy, you can add a tablespoon of heavy cream or sour cream.
- Serve the sauce with a side of crusty bread or garlic bread.
