1
Prepare the zucchini noodles

Trim the ends of the zucchini and spiralize them using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler to create noodles. If using a vegetable peeler, slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips, then cut them into noodle-like strands.

Halve the tomatoes

Rinse the cherry tomatoes and halve them.

Heat the oil

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

5
Sauté the garlic

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

6
Add the tomatoes

Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and release their juices, about 5 minutes.

7
Season the sauce

Season the tomato sauce with salt and black pepper, and stir to combine.

8
Add the zucchini noodles

Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss with the tomato sauce until the noodles are heated through and slightly softened, about 2-3 minutes.

Tear the basil

Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces.
