Time 22m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons margarine
3 cups sliced zucchini (sliced 1/8-inch thick)
1 cup sliced onion (sliced 1/8-inch thick)
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1 pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Add tomato wedges; sprinkle with cheese. Cover and let stand 2 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and firm zucchini: Look for zucchinis that are deep green in color and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchinis that are yellow, have blemishes, or are soft to the touch.
  • Slice the zucchini evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the zucchini, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly. Overcrowding the pan will cause the zucchini to steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the zucchini until it is tender: The zucchini should be tender but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooking the zucchini will make it mushy.
  • Use fresh mozzarella cheese: Fresh mozzarella cheese will melt better and have a more flavorful taste than pre-shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Serve the zucchini immediately: Zucchini is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will prevent it from becoming soggy.
