Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.

Incorporate the zucchini and continue cooking for another 5 minutes or until all vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Sprinkle chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper over the veggies. Stir well to ensure all the spices evenly coat the vegetables. Cook for an additional 2 minutes for the flavors to meld.
