Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Shiitake mushrooms
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 3 whole Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Clean the shiitake mushrooms by wiping them gently with a damp paper towel. Trim the stems and slice the caps into thin strips.
Wash the zucchini thoroughly, then trim the ends. Slice the zucchini into thin half-moons, about 1/4-inch thick.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and become tender.
Add the zucchini to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook for another 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender but still slightly crisp.
Drizzle the soy sauce evenly over the mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 1 minute to let the flavors meld.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve warm as a side dish or a light main course with rice or noodles.
