Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Wash the zucchinis, mushrooms, and onions thoroughly. Slice the zucchini into half-moons, thinly slice the onions, and clean the mushrooms. Mince the garlic.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent and slightly softened.
Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until mushrooms are tender and have released moisture.
Stir in zucchini slices, season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until zucchini is tender but slightly crunchy.
Taste and adjust seasoning. Optionally, add chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Maintain medium-low heat to ensure even cooking and prevent rubbery mushrooms. Avoid rinsing mushrooms under water; wipe them clean. Sauté zucchini until tender but still slightly crunchy. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving.
