| Instructions: | 8 sm Zucchini, lightly steamed 1 tb Olive oil 1 lg Garlic clove, minced 1 1/2 tb Rosemary, minced 1 1/2 tb Sage leaves, minced 1 tb Lemon juice 1/4 c Olive oil 1 ts Salt Black pepper
Let the steamed zucchini cool. Warm 1 tb olive oil in a small saute pan over very low heat & add the garlic. Let it sweat so that the flavour infuses the oil. Add the rosemary & sage & let them wilt in the oil for a minute or so. Cut the cooled zucchini into strips the size of kitchen matchsticks & place them in the salad bowl. Whisk together the lemon juice, 1/4 c olive oil, salt, pepper & garlic-herb infused oil. Toss carefully, being extremely careful not damage the fragile zucchini pieces. Serve at room temperature.
