Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender courgettes: Look for courgettes that are firm and have a deep green color. Avoid courgettes that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Slice the courgettes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a large skillet or sauté pan: This will give the courgettes plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help the courgettes brown and caramelize.
  • Cook the courgettes in batches: If you overcrowd the pan, the courgettes will steam instead of sautéing.
  • Stir the courgettes frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Season the courgettes with salt and pepper: Add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
  • Cook the courgettes until they are tender and slightly browned: This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Serve the courgettes immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Sautéed courgettes with chives is a quick, easy, and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. The courgettes are tender and slightly browned, with a hint of sweetness from the chives. This dish is a great way to use up fresh courgettes from your garden, and it is also a healthy and nutritious choice.
