Preparation
Step 1
Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt the water, add the pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp. butter over medium- high. Add the squash and crushed red pepper; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is browned and tender, 10 to 12 minutes; transfer to a plate.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tbsp. butter over medium. Add the sage and fry until crispy, about 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sage to paper towels. Swirl the skillet until the butter is golden- brown and nutty, about 2 minutes. Add the linguine, reserved pasta water and squash; toss to coat. Season.
Divide the pasta between plates. Top with the ricotta, fried sage and lemon zest.
