Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced into half-moons (about 1 pound)
  • 8 ounces mushrooms buttons or cremini, sliced
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • to taste salt
  • to taste black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme optional
  • for garnish fresh parsley chopped, optional

Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Method
 

  1. Wash the zucchinis and mushrooms thoroughly. Slice the zucchinis into half-moons, slice the mushrooms, and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic.
  2. Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and allow it to heat for about 1 minute.
  3. Add the sliced onions to the skillet. Sauté them for about 3 minutes, or until they start to soften and become translucent.
  4. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and release their moisture.
  5. Add the sliced zucchini to the skillet. Season with salt, black pepper, and thyme (if using). Sauté for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the zucchini is tender but still firm.
  6. Check the seasoning and adjust with more salt or pepper if needed.
  7. Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

This dish works as a great side for any meal. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or carrots for more variety. Adjust the seasoning to your taste preference.
