Southwestern Zucchini

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 small to medium summer squashes
• 2 medium to large ripe tomaotoes
• 1 red onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/4 fresh green chile, minced, or to taste
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin, or to taste
• sea salt
• juice of 1/2 lime (about 1 tablespoon), or to taste
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (fresh coriander)

Directions

1. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini slices and sauté until they just color lightly, about 1 minute. Then add the tomatoes, onion, garlic, chile, cumin, and sea salt to taste. Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the squases are tender-crisp, a few minutes longer.

2. Remove the heat and stir in the lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with the cilantro, and serve at once.
