Ingredients
1
zucchini
5
ounces
cherry tomatoes
1
garlic clove
minced
A small handful of fresh basil
chopped
A really good Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Sea Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
Cut the zucchini into cubes, about 1/2" thick.
Squeeze the cherry tomatoes to drain of their juices. Try and get all the juices you can out. Go ahead and throw away the juice, you don't need it.
In a large saute pan over high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
When the oil is hot, saute the zucchini.
When the zucchini is just starting to brown, add the garlic.
When the zucchini has browned well, add in the cherry tomatoes and season with the salt and pepper.
Cook this for five minutes, stirring occasionally.
Mix in the basil and pour a little of the really good olive oil in.
Cover and remove from heat. Let this sit for 10 minutes before eating.
