Description

A vibrant medley of sautéed bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms, flavorful with garlic and spices, perfect for family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, green), chopped
  • 1 cup zucchini, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or thyme), for garnish

Instructions

  1. Start by washing and chopping your vegetables into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
  3. Once the oil is shimmering, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Toss in bell peppers and mushrooms first; let them cook for about 2–3 minutes.
  5. Add in zucchini, stirring continuously for another 3–4 minutes, until all are vibrant and tender.
  6. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs, giving it one last good toss.
  7. Remove from heat and serve immediately for the best flavor.

Notes

Don’t overcrowd the skillet to avoid steaming rather than sautéing. Cook in batches if needed.
