Slice the 2 zucchinis into half-moons and chop the 2 tomatoes into chunks. Thinly slice the 1 onion and mince the 3 garlic cloves.

Heat the 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
