SAUTEED SUMMER SQUASH WITH BELL PEPPERS AND ONIONS

Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Heat the olive in a large skillet and then add the onions. Cook at medium heat, for about 2 minutes, stirring infrequently. Stirring infrequently is the key to a great saute - the more your stir, the less the veggies will be crisp as desired. Add the bell pepper, let that cook for a couple minutes and then add the squash. Stir to combine and then leave it alone for a few minutes.
- Sometimes I will cover this will a lid for a few minutes, but it depends on how everything is cooking. Check to see how to squash is cooking, flip everything over in the skillet or stir gently. If you are not stirring it often, you will see the edges begin to crisp and brown on the vegetables.
- If the skillet is dry or things appear to be sticking to it, just splash a little bit of water into the skillet. When the veggies are done to the level that you desire, remove from the heat and serve immediately. Enjoy!

YELLOW SQUASH AND RED PEPPER SAUTE
This is my favorite way to have yellow squash. I have to fight my husband for it because he loves it, too. I am estimating all the amounts. I usually just toss mine together with whatever amounts of squash and red pepper I have. I love the bright red and yellow colors dancing in the pan! Sometimes I sprinkle a little balsamic vinegar at the end and let it caramelize on the squash....not as beautiful a color but quite tasty.

Tips:
- Choose the right squash: Look for small, tender summer squash that are free of blemishes. Avoid squash that are too large, as they may be tough and seedy.
- Slice the squash thinly: This will help the squash cook evenly and quickly.
- Use a large skillet: This will give the squash plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
- Cook the squash over medium-high heat: This will help the squash brown and caramelize.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the squash will steam instead of sauté.
- Stir the squash frequently: This will help prevent it from sticking to the skillet and burning.
- Season the squash to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve the squash immediately: Sautéed summer squash is best served fresh out of the skillet.
Conclusion:
Sautéed summer squash with red pepper and onion is a quick, easy, and delicious side dish that is perfect for summer. The squash is tender and flavorful, and the red pepper and onion add a pop of color and flavor. This dish is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy choice for any meal.
