SAUTEED ZUCCHINI WITH MUSHROOMS FOR TWO

Steps:

• While the grill was heating,
• Wash the two zucchini's, (about eight inches in length each), chop off the ends, and discard.
• Cut the zucchini lengthwise twice and chopped into quarter inch sections.
• Clean about 4 ounces of button mushrooms and sliced them.
• Chop and mince shallot, about one tablespoon worth.
• Heat a skillet with one tablespoon olive oil.
• When the oil stated to shimmer, throw in the minced shallot and kept it moving in the pan until evenly browned.
• Turning the heat to medium-low, throw the sliced mushrooms in, tossed them so the oil evenly coated them.
• Sprinkled a dash (two pinches or 1/8 teaspoon) of kosher salt over the mushrooms.
• After a few seconds, toss them again so the other sides would brown a little.
• Once a decent amount of liquid had evaporated from the mushrooms, add the chopped squash to the pan, sprinkling on an additional dash of salt.
• Turning the heat back up to medium-high, allow the squash to cook, tossing them every ten or fifteen seconds.
• Once some of the zucchini picked up some brown caramelized bits, turn off the heat and pour the vegetables into a bowl.

Steps:

• Cut zucchini in half and then into 1 inch pieces.
• Heat enough olive oil to saute in a heavy skillet over medium high heat.
• Add zucchini, mushrooms, onion and garlic.
• Stir-fry until the zucchini and mushrooms are just tender and the onion is tender/crisp (about 8 minutes).
• Stir in oregano and salt and pepper to taste.

WILLIAMS-SONOMA SAUTEED ZUCCHINI AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Trim the ends off the ends of the zucchini and cut on the diagonal into slices 1/2 inch thick.
• Place in a colander and sprinkle with salt, tossing to distribute the salt evenly. Spread the zucchini out in the colander and let stand over a bowl, or in the sink, for 40-50 minutes to drain off the excess moisture and bitterness. Rinse and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Set aside.
• Using a soft brush or a clean kitchen towel, clean the mushrooms of any bits of soil; DO NOT WASH. Trim the stems. Cut the mushrooms into slices 1/4 inch thick. Place in a bowl and set aside.
• In a large saute pan or frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 TBS of the olive oil.
• Add the zucchini and saute, tossing often, until tender but still firm - about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Add another 2 TBS of olive oil to the same pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and saute, tossing often, until the mushrooms begin to soften - about 6-7 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the zucchini.
• Add the remaining 1 TBS of olive oil to the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add the chopped garlic. Saute gently, stirring, until the garlic just begins to change color - about 30-40 seconds.
• Return the mushrooms and zucchini to the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add the basil. Salt and pepper to taste. Raise the heat and toss until the vegetables are hot.
• Transfer to a warmed serving dish. Using a zester or a fine-holed shredder, shred the zest (yellow part only) from the lemon directly onto the vegetables and serve immediately.
• NOTE: you can substitute grated Parmesan cheese for the lemon zest, if desired.

• Cook, tossing and stirring constantly, until zucchini are crisp-tender and the mushroom are sofened and have just begun to release their liquid, about 2 minutes.
• Remove skillet from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve immediately.
