Dietitian's tip: Instead of breaded and fried, these zucchini slices are lightly sauteed and tossed with herbs. This reduced-fat version also features olive oil, which is mainly monounsaturated fat.
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced yellow zucchini
2 cups thinly sliced green zucchini
1 teaspoon dill weed
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
2 scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions
In a large, nonstick frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini slices and saute until their colors intensify, about 5 minutes. Add the dill, cilantro and scallions and stir until evenly mixed.
Transfer to a serving bowl. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve immediately.
