Begin by bringing a pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

While waiting for the water to boil, thinly slice the onion into rings.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent and tender. Once done, remove from heat and set aside, keeping them warm.
-
Once the water is boiling, carefully drop the baby zucchinis into the pot. Let them cook for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring they are heated through but still retain some crispness.
-
While the zucchinis are cooking, mince the garlic cloves.
-
In the same skillet used for the onions, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and lightly brown it, infusing the butter with its flavor.
-
Once the zucchinis are cooked, remove them from the pot and place them on a serving platter.
-
Top the zucchinis with the sautéed onions, evenly distributing them across the platter.
-
Finally, drizzle the garlic-infused butter over the zucchinis and onions, ensuring each boat gets a flavorful coating.
