Spicy Stewed Zucchini



Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves, Thinly Sliced
3 Pounds Zucchini, Trimmed and Cut Into 1/4 Inch Slices
1 Medium Sweet Onion, Peeled and Diced
1 Small Red Chili Pepper, Finely Diced
1/2 Cup Dry White Wine
1/4 Cup Chopped Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Directions:

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until lightly smoking.
Add the garlic, and cook a minute or two until fragrant, then add the zucchini and onions and cook the vegetables for about 15 minutes, stirring often, until they soften and begin to brown.
Add the chili pepper, and 1/2 cup of wine and lower the heat to medium low and continue to cook until the zucchini begin to break down, about 10 minutes.
If the mixture begins to dry out as it cooks, add a little water as needed.
Stir in the basil and season with salt and pepper.
Serve at room temperature.
