Continuing on medium heat, add in the honey and balsamic vinegar and sauté until the zucchini is tender (about 5 minutes), mixing occasionally.

Serve the honey balsamic zucchini as a side dish with chicken, pork, or steak. For a vegetarian option, serve this zucchini over pasta.
Notes
Invent Your Recipe:I really enjoy sauteing vegetables in extra virgin olive oil with garlic. I do this with green beans, zucchini, peppers, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, and broccoli. This recipe, with the honey and balsamic, will work well with all of those vegetables.
