Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

  2. Add the chopped zucchinis, yellow bell pepper, and red bell pepper to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. Pour in the can of diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  4. Season the stew with dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Allow the stew to come to a gentle simmer.

  5. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let the stew simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

  6. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the stew, stirring gently to incorporate the citrusy flavor.

  7. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

  8. Serve the Lemony Greek Vegetable Stew hot, garnished with crumbled feta cheese and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
