Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Extra virgin olive oil (I used our Greek Early Harvest olive oil)
1 sweet onion, halved and thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 medium yellow squash
1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
Kosher salt
Black pepper
Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Pitted marinated olives, sliced (optional)
Handful chopped fresh parsley (optional)
1 tsp za'atar, more for later
3/4 tsp to 1 tsp Aleppo pepper (start with less if you're not sure)
3/4 tsp ground cumin

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add sweet onions and cook for about 4 minutes until translucent (you can raise heat to medium-hot and toss onions regularly.)
  • Add garlic, yellow squash, and red bell peppers. Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and spice mixture. Toss with a wooden spoon to make sure vegetables are well coated with the spices. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, until squash and peppers are nice and tender (I like my squash to have some carmalized parts, so it helps to raise the heat for a little while.)
  • Transfer to a serving platter. Add another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a generous pinch of za'atar. If you like, add a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, pitted olives, and a handful of chopped fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy!
