Instructions

Slice zucchini to ½-inch thickness.

Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Toss zucchini with oil, basil, salt & pepper.

Add seasoned zucchini and cook 3-4 minutes or until tender-crisp.

Move the zucchini to one side of the pan and add butter and garlic to the other and cook briefly. Combine and cook until zucchini is tender, about 2 minutes more.

Season with salt & pepper to taste.
