Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 (5-to 6-ounces) fresh pork sausages
1/3 cup water
3/4 cup chopped sweet onion
1 medium fennel bulb, chopped
1 cup grape tomatoes (5 oz)
2 ears corn, kernels cut from cob
1/4 cup coarsely chopped dill

Steps:

  • Prick sausages a few times. Simmer with water in a 12-inch heavy skillet, covered, over medium heat 7 minutes. Uncover and cook, turning occasionally, until water has evaporated and sausages are well browned and cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes more. (You may need to add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, depending on sausages.) Transfer sausages to a plate and pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet if necessary.
  • Cook onion, fennel, and tomatoes with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in skillet over medium heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until onion and fennel are crisp-tender and tomatoes are soft and beginning to burst, about 7 minutes. Add corn and dill and sauté 2 minutes.
  • Slice sausages and serve with vegetables.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you save time and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use fresh, seasonal vegetables: Summer is the perfect time to find a variety of fresh, flavorful vegetables at your local farmer's market or grocery store. Using fresh vegetables will give your sauté a more vibrant flavor and color.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're sautéing vegetables, it's important to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the vegetables from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam rather than sauté. Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season your sauté with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. This will help to enhance the flavor of the vegetables.
  • Serve immediately: Sautéed vegetables are best served immediately, while they're still hot and crispy. You can also store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Summer vegetable sauté is a quick, easy, and delicious way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a colorful and flavorful dish that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying meal, give summer vegetable sauté a try!
