Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, yellow squash, and onion. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with lemon pepper seasoning and seasoned salt. Toss gently until all the vegetables are evenly coated. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Allow it to preheat for 5 minutes to ensure even cooking. (Preheat time: 5 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Arrange the zucchini mixture in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. If necessary, cook in two batches to ensure proper air circulation and even browning. (Cook time per batch: 1 minute)

04

Step
16 mins

Air fry for 8 minutes. Shake the basket gently to redistribute the vegetables. Continue cooking for another 8 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. (Cook time: 16 minutes)

For enhanced flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vegetable mixture.
If you don't have lemon pepper seasoning, you can substitute with a blend of black pepper and lemon zest.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
Serve immediately as a side dish or toss with pasta for a light and refreshing meal.
