Steps:
- To make the sauce, heat the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced zucchini and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, parsley, basil, salt and pepper and cook until heated through, about 1 minute longer.
- To make the pasta, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place the halved zucchini on a work surface, cut side down, and slice lengthwise into thin strips. Place in the pot and cook for 3 minutes. Drain well. Place in a large bowl, sprinkle with the salt and toss with the tomato sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Divide among 4 plates and serve immediately.
