Sauteed Recipe ∽ Sauteed Zucchini

This is a really easy recipe that tastes great. Fresh veggies in a light sautee. You can add a cup of cooked pasta if you wish to give it more heft as a side dish. We always make too much pasta during the week so this is a great way to work through some of the leftovers.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 sweet onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 tomatoes, chopped
• ½ cup water, divided
• 1 cube chicken bouillon
• 1 large zucchini, thinly sliced
• ground black pepper to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion in the melted butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic; cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir the tomatoes and 1/4 cup water into the mixture; cover. Cook until the tomatoes have reduced slightly, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
2. Pour another 1/4 cup water into the skillet, and add the bouillon cube; stir until the bouillon is dissolved. Add the zucchini; continue cooking until the zucchini is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with black pepper to serve.
