The Best Way To Cook Zucchini
Today, let’s talk about zucchini. I absolutely love zucchini, especially when they are peak in season during spring and summer. There is nothing not to love about zucchini, the flavors are refreshing and there are so many ways to make zucchini, making it my favorite summer squash. One of the best zucchini recipes is sauteed zucchini on the skillet, with simple ingredients:
Garlic Butter Fresh lemon juice Salt and ground black pepper Italian parsley
There is no grilling, no deep frying, no oven baking, just a simple saute on the stove top. This sauteed zucchini recipe is quick, easy, healthy. It takes 8 mins from prep to dinner table. It’s that simple!
Cooking Tips
Cut the zucchini into strips or sticks, like zucchini fries. This will ensure the best texture after cooking. Check out the step-by-step guide on how to cut zucchini before saute. Do not overcook zucchini. It should remain crisp after cooking and have a nice bite. It shouldn’t be mushy and limpy. Use medium heat to quickly cook for about 3 minutes.
