Instructions

  1. Trim the ends from the zucchini squash, cut in half lengthwise, and then cut into ¼-½ inch slices.
  2. Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Wait for it to melt and spread it evenly across the surface of the skillet.
  3. Place the zucchini slices into the skillet in a single layer. Cook the zucchini for 3-4 minutes, undisturbed. Flip them over and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until almost tender.
  4. During the last 30 seconds of cooking, add the garlic directly onto the skillet and saute until fragrant. Salt and pepper the zucchini to taste and serve immediately.

Notes

  • How to prep ahead of time: Chop the zucchini and keep it in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.
  • How to store: Keep leftover sautéed zucchini in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • How to freeze: Allow the zucchini to cool, then transfer it to an airtight, freezer-safe container, and freeze up to 3 months
  • How to reheat : You can easily use the microwave, but warming it back up in a skillet with a little more butter is the best method.
