SAUTEED ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
A great side dish to pair up with beef, chicken or fish. Love the flavors in this dish - simple but full of flavor. I did add a clove of garlic to the original recipe just because I thought it would really give it a great background flavor. Tried and posted for ZWT7.

ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
I'm bored with all the usual zucchini recipes, you know, with parmesan, pancakes, etc., so I decided to experiment a little. This is a great fast and easy side dish for any dinner. You must use oil packed tomatoes or you won't have the flavor.

Steps:
- Trim the ends off the ends of the zucchini and cut on the diagonal into slices 1/2 inch thick.
- Place in a colander and sprinkle with salt, tossing to distribute the salt evenly. Spread the zucchini out in the colander and let stand over a bowl, or in the sink, for 40-50 minutes to drain off the excess moisture and bitterness. Rinse and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Set aside.
- Using a soft brush or a clean kitchen towel, clean the mushrooms of any bits of soil; DO NOT WASH. Trim the stems. Cut the mushrooms into slices 1/4 inch thick. Place in a bowl and set aside.
- In a large saute pan or frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 TBS of the olive oil.
- Add the zucchini and saute, tossing often, until tender but still firm - about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Add another 2 TBS of olive oil to the same pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and saute, tossing often, until the mushrooms begin to soften - about 6-7 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the zucchini.
- Add the remaining 1 TBS of olive oil to the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add the chopped garlic. Saute gently, stirring, until the garlic just begins to change color - about 30-40 seconds.
- Return the mushrooms and zucchini to the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add the basil. Salt and pepper to taste. Raise the heat and toss until the vegetables are hot.
- Transfer to a warmed serving dish. Using a zester or a fine-holed shredder, shred the zest (yellow part only) from the lemon directly onto the vegetables and serve immediately.
- NOTE: you can substitute grated Parmesan cheese for the lemon zest, if desired.

Steps:
- While the grill was heating,
- Wash the two zucchini's, (about eight inches in length each), chop off the ends, and discard.
- Cut the zucchini lengthwise twice and chopped into quarter inch sections.
- Clean about 4 ounces of button mushrooms and sliced them.
- Chop and mince shallot, about one tablespoon worth.
- Heat a skillet with one tablespoon olive oil.
- When the oil stated to shimmer, throw in the minced shallot and kept it moving in the pan until evenly browned.
- Turning the heat to medium-low, throw the sliced mushrooms in, tossed them so the oil evenly coated them.
- Sprinkled a dash (two pinches or 1/8 teaspoon) of kosher salt over the mushrooms.
- After a few seconds, toss them again so the other sides would brown a little.
- Once a decent amount of liquid had evaporated from the mushrooms, add the chopped squash to the pan, sprinkling on an additional dash of salt.
- Turning the heat back up to medium-high, allow the squash to cook, tossing them every ten or fifteen seconds.
- Once some of the zucchini picked up some brown caramelized bits, turn off the heat and pour the vegetables into a bowl.
