Story

When I make this, or most things with sauted zucchini for that matter, I find the zucchini is a little easier to handle when cut in uneven chunks instead of disks. The disks sit flat on the pan and it's hard to stir them up and fry them up nice.
I also use a hotter pan because I want the zucchini to cook fast and not sit in their own juices, which they tend to do if you fry them too slowly in a warm instead of hot pan. That is why I mix the butter with canola oil, to keep the butter from burning in a hotter skillet.
This is a nice, light blend of classic Italian flavors. Enjoy!
