Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Wash and dry the zucchini and mushrooms. Cut the zucchini into thin rounds and slice the mushrooms into approximately quarter-inch thick pieces.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the parsley for garnish.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the sliced zucchini and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir to coat them evenly with the olive oil.
Sprinkle the dried thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir well to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Cook the zucchini and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the mushrooms have released their liquid and are golden brown.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the vegetable medley.
Serve immediately as a side dish or over rice, pasta, or quinoa for a complete meal.
