Sweet ‘n’ Spicy Summer Squash

Squash and Zucchinis were banned in my house growing up so I wasn’t able to appreciate them until I was older but I have made up for it and then some. Here’s a simple and easy summery recipe to enjoy those Zuccs and Squashes with.

• 2 Squash sliced (could be half Squash half Zucchini)

• 1/2 Bell Pepper julienned

• 1 Jalapeño seeded, cored, and sliced thinly

• 1/4 Vidalia Onion thinly sliced

• Lots of Butter melted

• Drops Sesame Oil

• Drops Honey

• 1 Tbs Sambal Oelek

• Drops Liquid Smoke

• Spices- Oregano, Garlic Powder, Smoked Paprika, etc

• Sesame Seeds

1. Combine Honey, Liquid Smoke, Sesame Oil, melted Butter, Sambal Oelek, and Spices in a bowl before pouring them over the sliced gourds and other veggies. Then place all of that in a bag and seal, letting it marinade for more than 10 minutes.

2. If you’re outdoors in the nice summer sun, then pour the contents onto a skillet that’s been heated in the grill, making sure to flip every now and then. If you’re inside, do the same in a skillet on the stove.

3. Once they’re done, pour some Sesame Seeds over it all and enjoy!
