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. :).
