Sauteed zucchini is a CSA basic recipe you need to have in your back pocket. You can take this simple vegetable prep almost anywhere. As is, it is a simple side dish. Add some noodles for a pasta meal, top with eggs for a filling lunch, add some grains and greens for a hearty dinner salad.
Today I topped my noodles with sauteed zucchini, goat cheese and roasted nuts. Yum.
Here is a ‘no recipe-photo recipe’.
Start with your zucchini cut into coins pretty much the same size and either garlic or onions.
Heat a pan with a slick of oil on medium heat. You want a big pan to cook this in, you don’t want to crowd the vegetables, they will sweat and not brown if they are crowded. Add the vegetables and some salt and pepper.
Don’t move the zucchini around too much or it will lose it’s shape and not brown, but do gently turn them a time or two. This happens pretty fast, maybe 5 minutes so don’t walk away. You can make a big batch and happily use leftovers as needed through the week.
Happy eating.
