Description
A simple vegetarian skillet zucchini dish that takes advantage of fresh summer produce. Serve this versatile Italian-style stir fry as a side or as a meatless main dish over a bed of cheesy rice, quinoa or pasta.
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil, butter or bacon butter (fat rendered from baked bacon)
- 1/2 of a medium onion, peeled & chopped
- 2 – 3 cloves garlic, peeled & chopped
- 1 medium zucchini (8 – 10 inches long), sliced and quartered
- Red Robin Seasoning (or your favorite seasoned salt), Trader Joe’s 21 Seasoning Salute (or your favorite no-salt seasoning) and freshly ground black pepper
- About 15 – 20 sweet cherry tomatoes, halved
- Optional, for the top: shredded Parmesan, Romano or Asiago cheese & fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- In a medium frying pan, melt the butter or heat the olive oil and swirl around the pan. Add the onion and garlic and saute until the onion is soft & translucent.
- Stir in the zucchini and sprinkle with seasonings & pepper. Saute for a few minutes until the zucchini is tender.
- Add the cherry tomatoes and cook a few minutes longer, until the tomatoes are soft. Taste and adjust seasonings to taste. If desired, top with cheese and fresh basil leaves. Enjoy!
