Method

  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, sautéed mixture, and half of the crispy tortilla strips. Toss gently to ensure everything is well combined.
  6. To serve, spoon the pasta mixture into individual bowls. Drizzle with tahini and garnish with fresh dill. Top with remaining tortilla strips for crunch.
