With a touch of garlic and herbs, this quick side dish elevates any meal and is perfect for family gatherings or weeknight dinners.

Wash the zucchinis thoroughly and slice them into ¼-inch rounds.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Carefully add the sliced zucchinis to the hot skillet in a single layer.
Sprinkle the zucchini with salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown.
