Original Recipe Yield 1 quart
 

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 large zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, for drizzling

Directions

  1. Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add zucchini slices and garlic; cook and stir until starting to brown but you want the squash to stay firm and not get mushy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and mix in the vinegar, mint, salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining olive oil. Spoon into a jar and store covered in the refrigerator.
