When cooked, remove the chili pepper and garlic. Blend the mixture, season with salt, and stir in the béchamel sauce.
3

Slice the remaining zucchini into rounds and fry them (you can also use an air fryer).
4

Cook the pasta, then toss it with half of the zucchini sauce and some of the Parmesan cheese.
5

In a baking dish, layer the pasta with diced mozzarella and provolone, the fried zucchini, and Parmesan cheese.
6

Finish with the remaining sauce and Parmesan cheese on top.
