Ingredients
– 1 tablespoon butter (or olive oil or coconut oil)
– 2 large zucchinis, halved and sliced
– 8 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
– 1 small onion
– 1 clove garlic, minced
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ¼ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
1-First, heat the skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter or oil. This step takes about 1-2 minutes and sets the base for flavorful sauteing vegetables. Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and onion in an even layer, then cook without stirring for 3 minutes to brown one side nicely.
2-Next, stir the mixture every couple of minutes and continue cooking for a total of 6-8 minutes until the vegetables are tender. At this point, add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper, and cook for another 30-60 seconds until everything smells amazing. Preparation time is about 4 minutes, with an 8-minute cook time, so the whole process totals around 12 minutes.
3-Once done, adjust the seasoning to taste and serve right away. This dish is ideal for quick meal prep and stores well, so you can enjoy it fresh or save leftovers for up to 5 days.
