Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove of garlic minced
  • 4 medium sized zucchini spiralized with the skin on
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt*
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill coarsely chopped

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet in medium heat. Add in the garlic clove and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly browned, 30 seconds or so.
  • Add in the zucchini “noodles” and season with salt and pepper. Cook until slightly wilted, 4-5 minutes. Make sure to turn it a few times with tongs (or two forks) to ensure even cooking.
  • Divide the zucchini noodles amongst two plates. Sprinkle with feta cheese and dill. Taste for seasoning, and add in if necessary.
  • Serve immediately

Notes

  • When it comes to seasoning, I would recommend to check the saltiness of your feta before adding more salt into the dish.
  • This dish can be served warm and cold. It makes a great cold salad.
  • Alternatively, you can top it off with a fried or poached egg if you want to add some animal protein to your dish.
