- Cut red onion into small pieces and transfer them into a pan with approximately 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Keep the heat low.

Once the oil is heated, place the zucchini slices in the pan and let them cook for about a minute or two.

The act of charring the already flavorful Divine Flavor Zucchini will give it a delicious taste.Once the zucchini is charred, add the caramelized onion and garlic mixture to the pan, mix in the corn and chickpeas, and stir for a minute or so.If necessary, season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with some parsley, and savor it as a delightful side dish for your holiday.
