The Zucchini Surprise: A Simple Recipe That Disappears Before Dinner

It’s quick, fuss-free, and requires no fancy equipment. You don’t even need to cook it—just shake, wait, and enjoy!

Step-by-Step Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2–3 medium zucchinis

  • 2–3 garlic cloves (minced)

  • A handful of fresh dill (finely chopped)

  • 1–2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

  • A pinch of black pepper

  • Optional: a squeeze of lemon juice for extra freshness

Instructions

  1. Slice the Zucchini
    Wash the zucchinis thoroughly and cut them into thin, even rounds. The thinner the slices, the better they will absorb the marinade.

  2. Prepare the Marinade
    In a bowl, mix together minced garlic, chopped dill, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. If you like a tangy kick, add a squeeze of lemon juice.

  3. Combine in a Bag
    Place the zucchini slices in a clean food-safe plastic bag. Pour the marinade over them, seal the bag tightly, and gently shake to coat every slice evenly.

  4. Let It Rest
    Leave the bag in the refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours. The longer it sits, the more flavorful the zucchini becomes.

  5. Serve and Enjoy
    Open the bag, transfer the zucchini slices to a bowl or plate, and serve as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.
