Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, for 5 to 6 minutes until browned. Done when browned and crumbly, 160°F.
Add the garlic and zucchini rounds to the skillet. Season with half the salt, the black pepper, and dried basil. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the zucchini begins to soften.
Stir in the tomato sauce, water, and the remaining salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes until the zucchini is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly. Done when zucchini is tender and meat reaches safe temperature, 160°F.
