This is always how I cook my zucchini- the Cavenders Greek seasoning compliments it beautifully. Cavenders seasoning is available in most good grocery stores. I am cutting down on salt intake but feel free to add salt if you like.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large zucchini (or 3 small)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
3/4 teaspoon Cavenders All Purpose Greek Seasoning (more or less to your taste)

Steps:

  • Slice the zucchini.
  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over a medium heat and add the zucchini and garlic. Cook until done to your liking, around 10-12 minutes (this will also depend on the thickness of your zucchini slices).

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm zucchini: Look for zucchini that is deep green in color and has smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that is yellow or has soft spots.
  • Slice the zucchini evenly: This will help ensure that the zucchini cooks evenly. If the slices are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may not be as tender.
  • Use a large skillet: This will give the zucchini plenty of room to cook evenly. If you use a skillet that is too small, the zucchini may crowd together and not cook properly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the zucchini will not cook evenly. Cook the zucchini in batches if necessary.
  • Season the zucchini well: Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the zucchini, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Cook the zucchini until it is tender: The zucchini should be tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooking the zucchini will make it mushy.

Conclusion:

Seasoned zucchini in a skillet is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. The zucchini is cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch, and the seasonings add a delicious flavor that will complement any meal. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini.
