Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced into half-moons
  • 8 oz 225g mushrooms, sliced
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme optional
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
  • Juice of half a lemon optional

Method
 

  1. Slice the zucchini into half-moons and the mushrooms into slices. Mince the garlic and set aside.
  2. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Once hot, add the olive oil and heat until it shimmers.
  3. Add the zucchini and mushrooms in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to develop a char on one side.
  4. Stir the vegetables and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they start to brown. Add garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme (if using). Stir frequently, cooking for 2-3 more minutes until fragrant and tender.
  5. Remove from heat. Optionally, squeeze lemon juice over the vegetables for brightness. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
