Spicy Zucchini

Recipe #294820 | 10 min | 3 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: CraftScout

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.

Ingredients

  • tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 onion, thinly sliced
  • small zucchini
  • 1-3 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1-3 teaspoon chili powder
  • teaspoon salt
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Place oil in a large, heavy non-stick skillet and begin heating over medium high heat.
    2. 2
      Meanwhile, slice onion and cut zucchini into 1/4" rounds.
    3. 3
      Once oil is nice and hot, saute onion until it is starting to carmelize (about 2 minutes).
    4. 4
      Add zucchini and seasonings. Turn heat down slightly (to medium), and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    5. 5
      Zucchini should be yellow with some brown spots, slightly transparent looking and soft without being mushy. Onions should be thoroughly carmelized and yummy. :).
