Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 onion sliced
12 medium zucchini sliced
½ lemon
salt and pepper
fresh thyme

Instructions

Use a sharp knife to slice up your onions and cut the zucchini into wheels.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, drizzle the olive oil in and sauté the onion until translucent, about 2 - 3 minutes.
Add in the zucchini wheels and sauté for 5 – 8 minutes until the zucchini is slightly browned and the onion is caramelized. Keep stirring the veg to make sure they don’t stick and everything gets cooked evenly.
Add in salt and pepper, a squeeze of lemon, and fresh thyme leaves.

Notes

It's important to cut them all the same size. A mandoline slicer would help. Also, toss them to make sure they are all getting time on the bottom of the pan where the most heat is.
