CORN AND ZUCCHINI SAUTE



Corn and Zucchini Saute image

This dish has such pretty colour and great flavour. It is a little different from the one already posted, as it has tomatoes and cheddar cheese. This is from TOH. I have posted it as it appears in the magazine but if you use a non-stick pan, as I do, reduce the oil to 1 tbsp as you don't need that much oil.

Provided by Robyn Bruce

Categories     Vegetables

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
1/2 medium green pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 medium red sweet pepper, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 c fresh or frozen corn
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp dried italian seasoning (or more to taste)

Steps:

  • 1. In a skillet, sauté zucchini and peppers in oil until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
  • 2. Add remaining ingredients; sauté 3-4 minutes longer or until the corn is tender.

Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Ingredients: Select fresh corn and zucchini for the best flavor and texture. Look for corn with bright yellow kernels and zucchini that is firm and deep green.
  • Use a Large Skillet: A large skillet will allow the vegetables to cook evenly and prevent overcrowding.
  • Cook Over Medium-High Heat: This will help the vegetables to brown and caramelize, giving them a delicious flavor.
  • Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Zucchini cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook the corn and zucchini until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Season to Taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
