Garlic Zucchini Stir Fry Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 4 medium zucchinis, sliced into thin rounds
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce or tamari
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Freshly chopped parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions:
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat up for a moment.
- Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the hot oil. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Add the sliced zucchinis to the skillet. Spread them out in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
- Drizzle the soy sauce or tamari over the zucchinis. Stir-fry the zucchinis for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crisp.
- Season the zucchinis with salt and pepper to taste. Keep in mind that the soy sauce also adds saltiness, so adjust accordingly.
- Once the zucchinis are cooked to your desired level of tenderness, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Transfer the stir-fried zucchinis to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or basil for an extra burst of flavor.
