Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- While the pasta cooks, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add zucchini slices to the hot oil and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the sliced kielbasa to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan.
- Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of oil to the skillet. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring often. Add the minced garlic and ½ teaspoon of salt.
- Turn the heat to low and slowly pour in milk while constantly whisking (to prevent lumps). Turn the heat back up to medium-high and bring to a slow boil, until the sauce has thickened. Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in sriracha sauce. Check the seasoning and add additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Add the cooked zucchini, kielbasa, and pasta to the skillet. Stir until everything is well coated.
- Transfer to a serving bowl or portion into individual bowls and garnish with some sliced green onions on top before serving warm.

Notes
- You can start with 2 tablespoons of sriracha and add more to taste if you want the sauce to be more mild.
