Olive-Mushroom-Zucchini Sauce
2 cups cubed or sliced fresh zucchini
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 can beef or chicken broth (10-oz.), undiluted and fat-skimmed
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons sliced black olives
2 tablespoons olive liquid (from container of olives)
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3 cups cooked pasta
While pasta is cooking, make the sauce: Spray a large nonstick stir-fry pan with olive oil cooking spray. Add the zucchini, onions and mushrooms and saute over high heat just until they begin to brown. Add remaining ingredients, except pasta. Simmer uncovered over high heat 8-9 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender and liquid has reduced by half. Spoon sauce over hot drained pasta.
Makes 6 side-dish servings.
