Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 medium, sliced into thin rounds Carrot
• 2 medium, peeled and diced Parsnip
• 150 grams, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces Green beans
• 200 grams Broccoli florets
• 1 medium, sliced into half-moons Zucchini (courgette)
• 1 large, finely chopped Shallot
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 teaspoon, chopped Fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon, freshly ground Black pepper
• 2 teaspoons, freshly squeezed Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all vegetables by washing, peeling (if necessary), and cutting them according to the listed instructions.

Step 2

In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the chopped shallot and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 5

Add the carrots and parsnips to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, as these denser vegetables take longer to cook.

Step 6

Next, add the green beans and broccoli florets. Cook for an additional 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Add the zucchini to the skillet and stir well to coat all the vegetables in the butter and oil mixture. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes until all vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 8

Season the vegetables with salt, black pepper, fresh thyme, and parsley. Stir everything together to distribute the seasoning evenly.

Step 9

Finish with a drizzle of lemon juice to brighten the flavors. Stir once more and remove the skillet from heat.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own for a light meal. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
