Instructions
Prepare ingredients
Slice the chorizo, dice the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the zucchini if using.
Fry the chorizo
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chorizo slices and fry until they release their oils and become slightly crispy.
Add vegetables
Add diced onion, minced garlic, and optional zucchini slices to the pan with chorizo. Cook until onion is softened.
Cook pasta in one pot
Add dry pasta and enough water to just cover it. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until pasta is al dente.
Finish the dish
Stir in cream and grated parmesan. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the pasta.
Serve
Serve immediately while hot. Optional: garnish with extra parmesan and fresh herbs.
