- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan, for serving
Directions
- In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add scallions, garlic, and oregano; cook, stirring frequently, until scallions begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
