12 ounces penne pasta or other shapes
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided use
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 dried red chili, seeded and crushed
1 pound zucchini, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon shredded basil leaves

directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 8-12 minutes or according to the package instructions, until just tender.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a deep frying pan. Add the garlic, lemon zest, chili, and zucchini, and fry for 2-3 minutes until the zucchini is golden.
Drain the cooked pasta thoroughly and add to the zucchini pan, along with the remaining oil, the basil, red pesto, and plenty of pepper. Toss well over low heat to warm through gently for 1 minute, and serve at once.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
