Simple Sauteed Zucchini Recipe - Cooking Index
3 | Zucchini | |
1 | Garlic clove (large) | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt - or to taste |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Butter |
1 1/2 teaspoons | 7.5ml | Oil |
1/4 cup | 15g / 0.5oz | Very finely-chopped onion |
Freshly ground black pepper - (optional) |
Cut the ends off the zucchini. If the zucchini are small in diameter, leave them whole. If large, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini paper-thin, using the slicing blade of a grater or a mandoline.
Mash the garlic in the salt until dissolved to a paste.
Heat the butter and oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until the onion is tender, 5 minutes. Add the zucchini slices and cook until tender, stirring as needed to cook evenly, 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with pepper, if desired.
