How to Saute Zucchini in Butter Sauce
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and salt, stirring until the garlic is lightly sautéed and the butter is melted. Place zucchini slices into the skillet, aiming for a single layer with some overlapping. Cook until the zucchini is browned, stirring to coat them in the garlic butter sauce, for about 3-5 minutes. Adjust the cooking time based on desired crispness or softness. Serve the sautéed zucchini warm and enjoy!
