Instructions:

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

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

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. While the zucchinis are cooking, mince the garlic cloves.

6. 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.

7. Once the zucchinis are cooked, remove them from the pot and place them on a serving platter.

8. Top the zucchinis with the sautéed onions, evenly distributing them across the platter.

9. Finally, drizzle the garlic-infused butter over the zucchinis and onions, ensuring each boat gets a flavorful coating.
