Step 5: Finish and Serve

Once the zucchini is cooked and all the ingredients are well combined, remove the pan from the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve hot, either as a main dish or a side to complement grilled meats or fish.

Recipe Variations:

• Cheesy Zucchini and Potato Pan: Add some shredded cheese (such as mozzarella or Parmesan) during the last few minutes of cooking, allowing it to melt and coat the vegetables for an extra indulgent dish.
• Add Protein: For a more filling meal, try adding cooked chicken, sausage, or even tofu cubes to the pan after the potatoes are cooked. Stir everything together and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
• Herb Variations: Experiment with different herbs such as thyme, rosemary, or basil to change the flavor profile of the dish. Fresh herbs can also be added at the end for a burst of freshness.
• Sweet Potatoes: Replace the regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter and more nutritious twist on this dish.
• Vegan Option: This dish is already vegan-friendly! Just ensure your toppings and additional ingredients, like cheese, stay plant-based.
