Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 2 sprays olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the zucchini and slice it into thin rounds, approximately 1/4-inch thick.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, lightly coat the pan with 2 sprays of olive oil.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the zucchini slices to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side without stirring, allowing them to brown lightly.
Flip the zucchini slices and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until tender but still slightly firm.
Sprinkle the zucchini with dried oregano, salt, and black pepper, stirring gently to coat the slices evenly with the seasoning.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the zucchini to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the warm zucchini.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
