Instructions
- 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into rough ½-inch crumbles with a wooden spoon, for 6–8 minutes until browned throughout with no pink remaining and an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside, leaving any rendered fat in the pan.

Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 3 minutes, then stir and cook for 2 more minutes until the edges are golden and the pieces are just tender but still hold their shape.
