Provided by Sommer Collier

Categories     Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 tablespoons butter, (or oil)
1 small sweet onion, (peeled and chopped)
3 cloves garlic, (minced)
2-3 corn cobs, (corn cut off the cob)
1-2 zucchini, (cut into ½ inch cubes)
1-2 yellow squash, (cut into ½ inch cubes)
1 large poblano pepper, (seeded and chopped)
1 red bell pepper, (seeded and chopped)
1 orange bell pepper, (seeded and chopped)
¼ cup chopped cilantro
½ lime, (juiced)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper
1 cup Pico de Gallo
1 whole Lime, (cut into wedges)
1 cup Queso fresco
1 whole Avocado, (sliced)

Steps:

  • Set an extra-large cast iron cast over medium-high heat. Add the butter, onion, garlic, and poblano pepper. Saute and soften for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the ground cumin and oregano to the skillet. Stir and push the onions to the sides of the skillet.
  • Add about a third of the chopped squash and bell peppers. Brown for 1 minute. Then push them to the sides of the pan and add another third of the veggies. Cook for 1 more minute. Then push the veggies to the sides and add the remaining squash and peppers. (This method allows each batch of squash and peppers to get a bit of color.)
  • Season with 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Brown another minute, then stir in the corn, cilantro, and juice of ½ a lime.
  • Stir to warm the corn, then turn off the heat. The veggies should be just barely cooked and still firm.
  • Serve warm with a generous sprinkling of crumbled queso fresco, a dollop of pico de gallo, avocado slices, and extra lime wedges.
