2 pounds boneless round steak, cubed or 2 lb boneless chicken, cubed
2 medium zucchini, sliced thin
2 medium yellow (crookneck) squash, sliced thin

1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 cloves garlic, minced

How to make this recipe:
In a large skillet, melt butter. Brown both sides of the beef or chicken, a few pieces at a time. Remove pieces from skillet as they brown. Saute zucchini and squash in skillet 7-10 minutes.
