Preparation

  1. Trim ends from zucchini. Quarter lengthwise and cut each quarter into half-inch lengths. There should be about three and a half cups.
  2. Heat oil and when it is hot add zucchini. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add garlic and cook, shaking skillet and stirring until zucchini starts to brown, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add tomatoes and continue to cook, stirring gently so tomatoes cook evenly without breaking skin. Cook about two minutes, just until tomatoes are heated. Do not overcook or tomatoes will break. Remove garlic and serve hot.
