Ingredients
-
1 medium zucchini, untrimmed and halved lengthwise
-
1 medium yellow squash, untrimmed and halved lengthwise
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
2 tablespoons canola oil
-
2 small cloves garlic, finely chopped
-
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus leaves for garnish
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425°F. Using a sharp knife, score cut sides of zucchini and squash in a crosshatch pattern, cutting about 1/8-inch deep. Sprinkle the cut sides evenly with salt. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. Pat dry using paper towels.
-
Heat oil in a large (12-inch) ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the zucchini and squash, cut-sides down, in a single layer in the pan. Cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven; bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle garlic and thyme over the zucchini and squash; continue baking until the zucchini and squash are very soft, about 5 minutes more. Transfer the zucchini and squash to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Garnish with additional thyme, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
