How to cook zucchini on the stove

We love zucchini around here. Have you seen our zucchini noodles without guilt? We've even made a free-form lasagna with zucchini. This time, we are sharing how to cook zucchini on the stove. You only need five minutes of cooking time. Let me show you how.

There are many ways to cook zucchini, but the fastest way is to fry them or sauté them in a pan on the stove. By cooking the zucchini in this way, the zucchini browns on the outside and becomes tender on the inside.

We often fry zucchini and especially love when the zucchini is cooked in a little butter. The butter adds a nutty flavor and helps the zucchini to brown.

We also love adding a spoonful of chopped garlic to the pan, because butter and garlic are meant to be, right?

The trick to sauté the zucchini is not to cook it too much. The annealed zucchini becomes soft.
