EASY SAUTEED ZUCCHINI RECIPE

Steps:

• Start by slicing the zucchini into 1/4 inch rounds or even thinner, set aside
• Heat the olive oil in a frying pan until medium, not super hot
• Crush some garlic (don't mince), and add to the olive oil, stirring a bit and don't let it burn
• When the garlic is fragrant, it's time to add the zucchini slices in
• Spread the zucchini out and move them around periodically, they'll shrink a bit as water is released.
• When done to your liking (I like mine slightly firm not mushy), remove from heat
• Serve with some pasta, fresh salad or fresh italian bread!
