Zucchini with cream sauce is made with sour cream and onion, butter, and a little sweetener and lemon.

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds zucchini, unpeeled, cut in strips, about 6 cups of zucchini strips
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube or equivalent granules or base
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons sugar or sugar substitute
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Preparation:

In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine zucchini strips, onion, water, salt, bouillon, and dill; bring to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes, or just until zucchini is tender. Do not drain. Add butter, sugar, and lemon juice. Remove from heat. Blend flour with sour cream. Stir about half of the cooking liquid into the sour cream; return sour cream mixture to the saucepan. Continue cooking, stirring, until thick and bubbly.
