Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

For succotash
1 1/2 pounds fava beans, shelled, or 1 1/2 cups frozen lima beans, thawed
2 large ears corn, kernels cut from cob (about 2 cups)
1 large tomato, seeded, diced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
For creamed corn
7 large ears corn, kernels cut from cob (about 7 cups)
3 tablespoons whipping cream
Vegetable oil (for frying)
4 6- to 8-ounce pieces cod fillets

Steps:

  • For succotash:
  • Cook beans in large saucepan of boiling salted water until just tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon or strainer, transfer beans to colander; reserve cooking water. Rinse beans with cold water. If using fava beans, peel off outer skins and discard. Add corn kernels to reserved cooking water and cook until just tender, about 1 minute. Drain. Return beans and corn to same saucepan. Mix in tomato, Italian parsley and extra-virgin olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand covered at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat before serving.)
  • For creamed corn:
  • Place 4 cups corn kernels in processor. Puree until liquid is released from corn, about 3 minutes (mixture will still be coarse). Transfer pureed corn to strainer set over large measuring cup. Press on solids in strainer to extract at least 3/4 cup juice; discard solids. Transfer corn juice to medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat just until juice begins to thicken, about 45 seconds (do not boil or juice may curdle). Add remaining 3 cups corn kernels and whipping cream to saucepan and stir just until corn is heated through, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove creamed corn from heat; cover to keep warm.
  • Pour enough vegetable oil into heavy large skillet to reach depth of 1/4 inch. Heat over high heat. Sprinkle cod fillets with salt and pepper. Add fillets to skillet and cook until golden brown and center of each fillet is just opaque, about 4 minutes per side. Divide creamed corn equally among 4 plates. Top each serving with sautéed cod fillet. Spoon succotash atop each fillet and serve.

Tips:

  • Fresh is Best: Whenever possible, use fresh corn and lima beans. The fresher the vegetables, the more flavorful the succotash will be.
  • Choose Sweet Corn: Look for corn that is sweet and milky. Avoid corn that is dry or has a lot of kernels that are missing.
  • Use Frozen Vegetables in a Pinch: If you don't have access to fresh corn and lima beans, you can use frozen vegetables instead. Just be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Succotash is best when the vegetables are cooked just until tender. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the succotash before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

Creamed corn succotash with cotija is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh corn and lima beans, and it is also a good source of fiber and protein. The cotija cheese adds a salty and tangy flavor that complements the sweetness of the corn and lima beans. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
