This easy, quick-sautéed zucchini is the perfect side dish for weeknights. It's full of flavor, and the zucchini slightly caramelizes as it cooks in the cast-iron pan. It's our favorite way to use up zucchini (beside chocolate zucchini bread, of course).
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 large zucchini, cut into rounds
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan
Step 1
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add zucchini and oregano. Cook until zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch red pepper flakes.
Step 2
Top with Parmesan and serve warm.
