Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- First things first, let’s wash and slice up our zucchinis. If you’ve got a knife, a cutting board, and a little bit of zest, you’re halfway there!
- In a large pot, bring a few inches of water to a gentle boil. You’re going to create a steamy sauna for those zucchinis, and they’ll love you for it!
- Once the water is bubbling away, place the sliced zucchinis in a steamer basket and set it over the boiling water. Cover it with a lid and let them steam for about 5 to 7 minutes. Remember, we want tender, not mushy!
- While the zucchinis are soaking up that steam, grab a small bowl and mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This fragrant mixture is going to work its magic on your soon-to-be scrumptious veggies!
- After the zucchinis are wisely steamed, carefully take them out, and toss them in the olive oil mix. Be gentle—it’s their spa day!
- Sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for that fancy touch, and voilà! Your fabulous Easy Steamed Zucchini is ready to be the star of your dinner table!
