Zucchini Noodle with Spicy Meat Sauce
Zesty tomato meat sauce served over spiraled zucchini noodles.
Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- drizzle of olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 pound ground meat
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1 cup salsa
- 2-4 medium-size zucchini washed and dried
- parsley for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Drizzle in olive oil. Next, add the chopped onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Sautee until onions are translucent.
- When ready, add the ground meat, paprika, cumin, and coriander. Stir-fry until the meat is golden brown.
- Then, add the salsa. If the salsa is too thick feel free to add broth or water to thin it out until the desired consistency is met. Cook on medium-low heat for about 15 minutes.
- While the meat is simmering away, spiral as many zucchini as your heart desires. Typically one medium-sized zucchini is just enough for one serving
- Finally, after the meat sauce is ready, taste to adjust any seasonings (salt and pepper, etc.) Place the "noodles" on a pasta dish, then generously pour over the meat sauce. Garnish with parsley, optional.
