Ingredients

12 oz. spaghetti or long pasta

1 lemon

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons thinly sliced garlic

2 medium zucchini (12 oz.) sliced in 1/8-inch thick half-rounds, (3 cups)

1/2 cup Sun-Maid Raisins

1 cup chopped walnuts or whole pine nuts

1 teaspoon salt

Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions 

Cook pasta in boiling salted water per package directions. Drain.

Remove strips of lemon peel with a vegetable peeler. Finely slice the peel into 1-inch long shreds to make about 2 tablespoons. Reserve lemon for another use.

Heat olive oil in pot used for pasta over medium heat. Add garlic and stir 1-2 minutes until garlic just starts to turn golden brown.

Add lemon peel, zucchini, raisins, nuts and salt.

Stir over medium heat until nuts are lightly toasted and zucchini is tender-crisp, 1-2 minutes.

Rinse pasta briefly with hot water if it has become sticky. Return pasta to pot and stir to combine.

Serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.
