  • 1
    Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot, bay leaf, and thyme. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Sweat the vegetables until they soften. Add the wine and reduce almost totally. Add the cream and reduce until thickened.

    While the cream is reducing, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Season the zucchini slices with a little salt and pepper and add them to the frying pan in a single layer. Cook the zucchini slices until browned a little on each side.

    Place the chives in a small saucepan and strain the cream into the chives. Stir in the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. If the zucchini slices are not ready, keep the sauce warm over low heat.
