Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Extra virgin olive oil (I used our Greek Early Harvest olive oil)
1 sweet onion, halved and thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 medium yellow squash
1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
Kosher salt
Black pepper
Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Pitted marinated olives, sliced (optional)
Handful chopped fresh parsley (optional)
1 tsp za'atar, more for later
3/4 tsp to 1 tsp Aleppo pepper (start with less if you're not sure)
3/4 tsp ground cumin

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add sweet onions and cook for about 4 minutes until translucent (you can raise heat to medium-hot and toss onions regularly.)
  • Add garlic, yellow squash, and red bell peppers. Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and spice mixture. Toss with a wooden spoon to make sure vegetables are well coated with the spices. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, until squash and peppers are nice and tender (I like my squash to have some carmalized parts, so it helps to raise the heat for a little while.)
  • Transfer to a serving platter. Add another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a generous pinch of za'atar. If you like, add a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, pitted olives, and a handful of chopped fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy!

Sautéed Summer Squash with Red Pepper and Onion image

This is the time of year when, no matter what part of the country you live in, tables at farmers' markets are piled high with summer squash, mounds of it: yellow, light green and dark, round and long. This is a vegetable that expresses itself well in a wide range of dishes; just about every cuisine in the world knows how to show it off. It's an excellent low-calorie food, with only 19 calories per cup of raw squash. This dish is great on its own as a side dish, but it can also be incorporated into many other recipes.

1 small red pepper, cut in 1/4-inch dice
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Turn the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring, until the squash is translucent and the red pepper tender, about 10 minutes. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt. Stir in the parsley and remove from the heat. Serve as a side dish, or use as a filling for a vegetable tart, gratin, or frittata.

SAUTéED YELLOW SQUASH WITH ONIONS



Sautéed Yellow Squash With Onions image

We enjoy this dish all year long and it goes well with any entrée! It is one of the ways my mother liked to prepare yellow squash for our family. The yellow color helps make a pretty plate. I have found that a combination of butter and olive oil is great for sautéing (Paula Deen agrees). Purchase small fresh squash.

Provided by Seasoned Cook

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 yellow squash, thinly sliced
1 sweet onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Cut squash into thin slices. Spread slices out onto paper towels. Salt and allow to "sweat". After 10 minutes blot with paper towel. Flip slices over and repeat with salt and blot after 10 minutes. This allows salt to flavor squash and releases water for better sautéing.
  • In a 10 inch saucepan combine olive oil and butter. Lightly sauté onion first and set aside into small bowl.
  • In same saucepan sauté squash on low heat until tender. Before removing from heat add sautéed onions and sprinkle with Lawry's seasoned salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
  • Note: For best flavor use a sweet onion.
