Begin by slicing 2-3 medium zucchini into ½-inch slices. *If they are a bit large/wide, first cut them in half from top to bottom, then slice each half into ½-inch moons.
Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once you have a hot skillet, add the slices to the pan.
Sauté for about 2 minutes, until golden brown, then carefully flip each piece over and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
Transfer sautéed zucchini to a serving bowl and season with ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper if desired.
Notes
Wait until after the zucchini is cooked to add salt! Otherwise it will sweat excess moisture and become soggy.
