Sauteed Yellow Squash With Onion For 1 Or 2 Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN SAUTEED YELLOW SQUASH RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add sweet onions and cook for about 4 minutes until translucent (you can raise heat to medium-hot and toss onions regularly.)
• Add garlic, yellow squash, and red bell peppers. Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil.
• Season with salt, pepper, and spice mixture. Toss with a wooden spoon to make sure vegetables are well coated with the spices. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, until squash and peppers are nice and tender (I like my squash to have some carmalized parts, so it helps to raise the heat for a little while.)
• Transfer to a serving platter. Add another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a generous pinch of za'atar. If you like, add a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, pitted olives, and a handful of chopped fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy!

SAUTEED YELLOW SQUASH AND ONION IN BUTTER

Steps:

• Place skillet over medium heat. Add butter and melt.
• Add onion and stir once to coat with butter. Saute for ten minutes, stirring halfway. Do not stir continually.
• Add squash and garlic, if using, and stir to coat with butter. Continue sauteing until onions are transparent and begin to be golden around the edges. Gently flip and stir every 5-10 minutes, taking care not to mash the squash as it becomes tender. If the vegetables start to stick to the pan, deglaze by adding a splash of water and scraping the bottom of the pan. The delicious fond morsels that come up from scraping will add to the flavor of the squash. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently.

SAUTéED YELLOW SQUASH WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Cut squash into thin slices. Spread slices out onto paper towels. Salt and allow to "sweat". After 10 minutes blot with paper towel. Flip slices over and repeat with salt and blot after 10 minutes. This allows salt to flavor squash and releases water for better sautéing.
• In a 10 inch saucepan combine olive oil and butter. Lightly sauté onion first and set aside into small bowl.
• In same saucepan sauté squash on low heat until tender. Before removing from heat add sautéed onions and sprinkle with Lawry's seasoned salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
• Note: For best flavor use a sweet onion.

• Remove skillet from heat and sprinkle with additional tablespoon Parmesan cheese prior to serving.
