Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Prep: 3/8 Inch is the preferred julienne.
  2. Cut the onion in half from top to root and peel off the outer layer. Slice thinly, about 1/4 inch or less.
  3. Remove the stem end and seeds from the pepper and slice thinly into about 1/4 inch or less strips lengthwise.
  4. Peel and smash and rough chop the garlic cloves.
  5. Hold these prepped items together in a plate or bowl.
  6. The next steps are a lot of knife work. If you have a mandoline to julienne the veggies into strings it helps. A food processor with a julienne disk could also work.
  7. Peel the carrots and cut into 3-4 inch long sections. Cut into a fine julienne ( about 1/4 inch or less). Hold in another bowl or dish.
  8. Cut the Squashes into a similar length and size of julienne, leaving out the seedy core parts. Hold these together.
  9. Strip the herb leaves from the stems and chop roughly. Hold in a tiny bowl.
  10. Cooking:.
  11. Heat half the olive oil and butter in a large frying or saute pan.
  12. Sautee the onion, pepper, and garlic until the onion is just translucent. Add a pinch of salt and fresh ground pepper while sauteeing, est. 3-5 minutes. Remove to the plate you held the prep on.
  13. Add the rest of the butter and olive oil to the pan.
  14. Saute the carrots until somewhat soft, est. 3 minutes.
  15. Add the squash and contintue to saute until they are just crisp/tender, another 3-4 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and fresh ground pepper.
  16. Add the onions, peppers, and garlic to the saute pan. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
