Instructions
0 Place the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-low heat. 1 When hot, add the diced onion with a pinch of salt. 2 Cook for 15 minutes, stirring as needed, until caramelized. 3 Add the garlic, zucchini, and corn with a large pinch of salt and cracked pepper and cook for a mere three minutes, stirring once. 4 Transfer vegetables to a large bowl and set aside. The zucchini will seem like it's underdone, but it will continue to cook as it sits. Do not overcook or it will be mushy. 5 Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. 6 Cook pasta one minute less than package directions, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water. 7 Strain pasta and transfer to the bowl of vegetables. 8 In the same saute pan over medium heat, stir together the lemon zest and juice, pasta water, and yogurt and bring to a simmer. 9 Add the pasta and vegetables back in and toss, cooking for 30 seconds to coat. 10 Remove from heat and add chopped basil before tossing again. 11 Serve.View original recipe
