00:00Hear me out. Zucchini scampi is the only way you should be eating zucchini this summer.
00:04Take that fresh summer vegetable, chop it and salt it to release some liquid,
00:07and then while that's going on in a hot pan, char up some lemon. This is such an easy step
00:12that has a really nice depth of flavor to lemon. Then we're going to char up all that zucchini and
00:16squash. I don't know about you, but cooking zucchini and squash like this feels so summery
00:20to me. Then in the same pan, we're adding white wine, garlic, crushed red pepper, and we'll bring
00:24the whole sauce together with some melted butter. Plate it all up, squeeze that lemon over top,
00:28and garnish with a little parsley and more crushed red pepper. I expected this to be a
00:32great side dish, but honestly, she might be the whole meal. Okay, that's delicious.
00:36I could eat this whole plate.
