Received this from another on line recipe site and loved the summery, bright flavors, ease of making and attractive presentation. I did add sweet onion and sweet peppers to the mix but posting as it was listed. Thinking it might also be good placed in a casserole dish, covered w/cheese and heated in the oven (just a thought)

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and tender yellow squash and corn. Look for squash that is firm and has a deep yellow color. Avoid squash that is bruised or has soft spots. Corn should be plump and have a bright yellow color. Avoid corn that is dry or has brown kernels.
  • Cut the squash and corn into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly. If the squash and corn are different sizes, the smaller pieces will cook faster than the larger pieces.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan. Once the oil is shimmering, add the squash and corn. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is tender and the corn is browned.
  • Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes have softened.
  • Stir in the cilantro and serve. Yellow squash and corn sauté can be served as a side dish or as a main course. It is also a great addition to tacos, burritos, and quesadillas.
