Directions:
- Place a large skillet over medium heat.
- After about 1 minute, add 1 T of the olive oil, and swirl to coat the pan.
- Add the onion and salt.
- Cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, or until the onion becomes very tender and lightly golden.
- Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Return the pan to the heat and slick the pan with just a teaspoon or two more of olive oil.
- Add the squash in a single layer, and cook, without stirring, until very golden on the bottom, for 1-2 minutes.
- Toss or stir to flip the squash and continue cooking, undisturbed, for 1-2 minutes longer, or until deeply golden brown on the other side.
- Toss in the garlic, and return the onions to the pan.
- Mix well, and season to taste with additional salt, if needed, and with a good amount of freshly ground black pepper.
- Serve hot, warm or at room temperature, garnished with a light sprinkling of thyme, and pine nuts and/or cheese, if desired.
- NOTE: You can make this with any of the thin-skinned, quick cooking squash varieties such as yellow patty pan, zucchini, crooknect, etc.
- Peeling the squash is optional.
