Sautéed Squash
Learn how to make the best sautéed squash! This easy recipe combines fresh yellow squash, onions, and garlic for a tender, savory side dish. Ready in under 20 minutes, it’s a simple scratch-made favorite for summer dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 summer squash cut into ¼-inch half moons
- 1 small onion sliced into ¼-inch half moons
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
I always use Kosher salt in my kitchen! If using table salt, start with half the amount and adjust to taste, as it is much "saltier" by volume.
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced squash and onion to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the squash is golden and tender.
- Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
Notes
For added flavor, sprinkle in fresh or dried herbs like thyme or oregano.
