Give this recipe a try to make awesome summer squash at home!

Ingredients

  • 3 or 4 small summer squash, cut into 1/4 inch rounds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Dash of salt
  • Dash of pepper
  • Dash dry, red chili flakes
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine (if you don't like wine, you could use half lemon juice/half water)
  • 1 tbsp goat cheese

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat.
  2. Add squash in a single layer to the pan and brown it. You want the squash to sear, but not get too soft.
  3. Once brown, flip and brown the other side. Sprinkle in salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and garlic. Cook until garlic is fragrant, but do not let garlic burn. Burned garlic is not good.
  4. Add in wine and simmer.
  5. Turn off heat or remove squash to a serving dish. Sprinkle goat cheese evenly over the top.
