CORN AND ZUCCHINI SAUTE
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.

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:
- For the best flavor, use fresh summer zucchini and corn. If using frozen vegetables, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
- To get a nice sear on the vegetables, make sure your skillet is hot before adding them. Don't crowd the pan, or the vegetables will steam instead of sautéing.
- Season the vegetables generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp. You don't want to overcook them, or they will become mushy.
- Serve the sautéed zucchini and corn immediately. They can be enjoyed on their own, or as a side dish with grilled chicken, fish, or steak.
Conclusion:
Sautéed zucchini and corn is a quick and easy side dish that's perfect for summer gatherings. The fresh vegetables are cooked in a flavorful oil, and seasoned with salt, pepper, and herbs. The result is a delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
