Best Zesty Zucchini Skillet Recipes
SPICY ZUCCHINI
This was so good last night, I don't want to forget what I did! This was a great side dish for cheese enchiladas. Adjust the seasonings according to your tastes and the age of your kids. I used the lower end for my 6yo (who ate it without protest) and 20mo (who was not so fond of it). If I were to cook this for just the adults at my house, I would use the upper end. I used really small zucchini for this, less than an inch in diameter and about 5-6 inches long.

Steps:
- Place oil in a large, heavy non-stick skillet and begin heating over medium high heat.
- Meanwhile, slice onion and cut zucchini into 1/4" rounds.
- Once oil is nice and hot, saute onion until it is starting to carmelize (about 2 minutes).
- Add zucchini and seasonings. Turn heat down slightly (to medium), and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Zucchini should be yellow with some brown spots, slightly transparent looking and soft without being mushy. Onions should be thoroughly carmelized and yummy. :).
ZESTY ZUCCHINI & MUSHROOMS IN MARINARA
Very simple, healthy, and very tasty!! I would cook this about every other day and could never get sick of it. Even my friends who hated vegetables loved it! For spaghetti lovers, Instead of the pasta, you have deliciously cooked zucchini! Feel free to add meat or cheese to the dish too...yum! TIP: Make sure your zucchini is fresh or they will have a slightly bitter aftertaste. *** If using FRESH mushrooms, I would suggest cooking them separately for five minutes (or until golden brown) then adding them to the finished zucchini mixture.
