Find an ideal I of $ mathbb Z[sqrt
3]$ generated by an integer prime (i.e. a prime
number in $mathbb Z$) such that $mathbb Z[
sqrt
3]/I$ is not an integral domain.
Thoughts: We need to find some prime number that generates an ideal. This ideal should have the property that upon constructing a quotient of its ring, it should exhibit zero divisors. If we choose the prime number to be $3$, we consider $I =( 3)$. Then observe that $$sqrt3=0+ 1 cdot sqrt3 in mathbb Z[sqrt3]$$
And also that $sqrt3$ is not divisible by $3$ in $mathbb Z[
sqrt
3]$, therefore its residue class modulo 3 will be $overlinesqrt3$
$$ overlinesqrt3 cdot overlinesqrt3 =3 equiv 0 bmod 3$$
So in $mathbb Z[
sqrt
3]/(3)$ we observe that there is at least one zero divisor and therefore it cannot be an integral domain.
I'm fairly new to integral domains and ideals, is this reasoning correct/on point?

Your reasoning is correct. The important point is that $sqrt3notin I= (3)_mathbbZ[sqrt3]$, so $overlinesqrt3notequiv overline0$, but $sqrt3sqrt3=3in I$ so $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/I$ is not a domain.

More generally this exact reasoning will work for any prime $p$ in which $3$ is a square, because then the ideal $(p)$ will not be prime in $mathbbZ[sqrt3]$ so that the quotient is not a domain.

Couldn't fit this in a comment so I will write it here. Your reasoning is correct.
Furhtermore for all primes $pinmathbbZsetminus2,3$, let $mathfrakp=(p)_mathbbZ[sqrt3]$.
Then $mathfrakp$ is a prime ideal if and only if $x^2-3$ has no roots modulo $p$, in which case $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/mathfrakpcong mathbbF_p^2$.
On the other hand $mathfrakp$ is not prime if and only if $x^2-3$ has a root $r$ modulo $p$ (so it has two roots, $-r$ is the other one), and in this case $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/mathfrakpcong mathbbF_p times mathbbF_p$.
When the prime $p=3$ you will have $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/mathfrakpcong mathbbF_3[x]/(x^2)$.
When the prime $p=2$ you will have $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/mathfrakpcong mathbbF_2[x]/((x-1)^2)cong mathbbF_2[x]/(x^2)$.
In other words $mathbbZ[sqrt3] = mathbbZ[x]/(x^2-3)$ and $mathbbZ[sqrt3]/(p)_mathbbZ[sqrt3] cong mathbbF_p[x]/(x^2-3)$
