Ingredients
2 medium zucchini
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 minced garlic cloves
Salt and pepper to taste
Juice of half a lemon (optional)
Directions
- Wash the zucchinis well and cut them into thin slices or cubes, according to your preference.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and saute for about 1 minute, until fragrant and lightly browned.
Be careful not to burn the garlic. - Add the zucchini slices to the skillet.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well so that the garlic and oil spread over the zucchinis. - Sauté the courgettes for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still slightly crunchy.
Time may vary depending on the thickness of the slices. - If desired, squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the sauteed zucchinis for a citrusy kick.
This is optional and can be omitted if preferred. - Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish or as part of a main dish.
Braised zucchini goes very well with rice, pasta or as a garnish for meats.
