Sprinkle the dried thyme, dried oregano, and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir to combine and evenly distribute the spices.

Sauté the vegetables over medium heat for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender-crisp. Adjust the cooking time to your desired level of tenderness.

Step 7

Add the lemon zest to the pan, give a final stir, and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
