Servings: 4
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1/2 large white onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 lbs cherry tomatoes or baby heirloom tomatoes
- 2 tbsp capers, drained from juices
- 3 large zucchini
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 1/2 cup loosely packed fresh basil
Begin by heating a large saute pan to medium high heat. Once hot, coat with oil, then add onion and garlic. Cook for just 2-3 minutes, then add in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to burst and the skins begin to caramelize.
Now stir in capers, cooking another 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
Meanwhile, prepare the zucchini noodles. Spiralize the zucchini, and drain any excess water with paper towels. Place in a large bowl. Feel free to also saute your noodles (I prefer mine raw) for 2-3 minutes with some oil.
Pour sauce over the noodles. Add prosciutto slices. Serve with fresh basil.
