Sautéed Summer Squash with Purple Sage Butter & Parsley

Ingredients:

2 pounds summer squash, ½-inch slices
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
8 purple sage leaves
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Salt
Fresh Lemon Juice

Directions:

  1. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and sage leaves.
  2. Allow the sage leaves to infuse the melting butter for about 3 minutes, stirring on occasion to avoid frying the leaves.
  3. Add garlic and squash to the pan and stir. Cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.
  4. Once cooked, sprinkle on the fresh chopped parsley, season with salt to taste and squeeze on the juice from a lemon. Mix and serve.
