Orrechiette with Caramelized Onions, Sugar Snap Peas, and Ricotta Cheese
['2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil', '4 cups (packed) chopped onions', '1 8-ounce package trimmed sugar snap peas, cut into 1/2-inch pieces', '1 8-ounce package orecchiette (little ear-shaped pasta) or pasta shells', '1/2 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese', '1/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves', '1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon peel']
Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions. Sauté until onions are pale golden, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; sauté onions until tender and deep golden, about 15 minutes longer. Transfer 3/4 cup sautéed onions to small bowl. Add peas to onions in skillet. Sauté until peas are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid.
Add pasta and 1/2 cup cooking liquid to onion mixture; stir over medium-high heat 30 seconds. Mix in ricotta, basil, and lemon peel, adding more cooking liquid to moisten as needed. Season with salt and pepper.
