1
Prepare the Carrots
Peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds. You should have about 4 cups of sliced carrots.
2
Wash the Mustard Greens
Thoroughly wash the mustard greens to remove any dirt or grit. Remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
3
Heat the Olive Oil
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
4
Sauté the Carrots
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
5
Add Mustard Greens
Stir in the chopped mustard greens to the skillet with the carrots, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, until the greens wilt down.
6
Season the Mixture
Sprinkle the za'atar spice mix, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir well to ensure the spices evenly coat the carrots and greens.
7
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice over the sautéed vegetables. Toss to combine.
8
Serve
Transfer the carrot and mustard greens mixture to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side dish or light main course.
