This is a quick and healthy dish, but not a very flavorful one. I'd suggest increasing the amount of garlic, adding some fresh ground pepper, and perhaps an additional herb such as basil if available. It would also be good to take a few more minutes of prep time to salt and squeeze the grated zucchini, so that the finished dish would be a little less watery.
