Italian Squash Saute

[madameruby]

I love Squash since lo-carbing. It is like my favorite veggie now. I was hungry, and this stuff tasted so good, now I make it all the time.

Italian Squash saute

1 small yellow squash
1 small green squash
1 tbsp butter
4 oz Purdue short cuts Italian chicken strips, (or you can make your own homemade)
3 oz parmesan cheese (the real, hard grated, not sprinkle stuff)
Salt and pepper to taste.

Wash and cut squash into half-moon's, about 1/4" think, leaving the skin on. Melt butter in skillet, and add cut-up squash when butter is melted. Sauté squash for 3-4 min until tender. Add chicken, and heat thru, an additional 1-2 min. Serve immediately, with the parmesan on top.

what's green squash? is that the same as zucchini?

[madameruby]

Yup, but I didn't want to have to figure out how to spell zucchini. I tried it all different sorts of ways, but none of them looked quite right:-)

This is also good with Italian sausage. I like it with some red (preferably) or green bell pepper, too. :yum:

This recipe is yummy, I make something similiar to this now, I use the italian turkey sausage. Thats funny about spelling zuchinni, I never can spell it right either.
