This is another one of my favorite sides to make. The original recipe doesn't call for zucchini, but I decided to add it in. You can omit the zucchini and just use the broccoli, and I'm sure other veggies could be thrown in, too. In place of soy sauce, I use Braggs Liquid Aminos. You can also buy broccoli florets already chopped up at the store, saving a lot of time!

This zucchini stir-fry only has a few ingredients, but it's full of flavor. Once pan-fried, the broccoli is crispy and the zucchini softens so there is great texture in the dish. Serve alongside grilled or baked chicken breasts for an easy, healthy dinner.
