Prep
1

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings). 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces.

  • To the boiling water, add rigatoni. Cook for 12-13 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
    Reserve 1 cup (2 cups) pasta water.
  • Strain rigatoni, then return to the pot, off heat.
