In a large skillet, working in two batches, heat 1 tbs olive oil. Once hot, add in half the zucchini pieces. Cook cut side down for 3-4 minutes. Flip over and season with your spices to taste. Toss in the garlic 30 seconds before you're ready to remove them from the pan and stir. Transfer to platter and repeat the process. Top with your freshly grated cheese and serve with lemon slices.
