- Large skillet
- Tongs
Ingredients
- 1 large zucchini
- Olive oil
- Minced garlic

Instructions
- Wash the zucchini well and peel if you like.
- Use a spiralizer or peeler to cut the zucchini into noodles. Or use a chef’s knife to slice the zucchini in half the long way. Then slice each half in half again lengthwise. Finally, slice the halves into thin, noodle-shaped strips.
- Heat a large skillet with sides over medium heat on the stove. Once it’s hot, pour in a drizzle of olive oil. Let it heat up until the oil is shimmer.
- Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.
