Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the pot, sautéing for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

Allow the chili to cook for an additional 10 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
