When zucchini season rolls around, my fridge is usually overflowing, between the farmers’ market and the generosity of gardening friends. I am always looking for new ways to prepare zucchini, but this simple sautéed version with fresh herbs remains my favorite. You can serve these with just about anything, but they are especially tasty with my Grape Leaf and Cabbage Dolmas.
