Instructions: Wash and trim ridged ends from the courgette. Shred the courgette using the large holes on a box grater or the shredding disk on a food processor.

Wrap the shredded courgette in several layers of paper towels or in a kitchen towel and squeeze gently. Continue squeezing, using new towels if necessary, until the courgette is fairly dry.

Heat the oil in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the courgette and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until courgette is tender, about 7 minutes. Stir in parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
