Sautéed Peppers And Corn Recipes

CORN 'N' RED PEPPER MEDLEY

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, cook corn in oil for 2 minutes. Add the red peppers, onion and garlic; cook and stir for 4-6 minutes or until peppers are crisp-tender. Stir in the parsley, chili powder, salt and pepper; cook 1-2 minutes longer.

SAUTEED FRESH CORN

Steps:

• Remove the husks and the silk from the corn and cut the kernels off as close to the husk as possible without removing any of the husk. You should have about 7 cups of kernels.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy saute pan. Add the corn, salt, and pepper and saute uncovered on medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the starchiness in the corn is gone. Taste, for salt and pepper, and serve.

FRESH CORN CASSEROLE WITH RED BELL PEPPERS AND JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the corn from the husks. In a large, deep bowl, slice off the kernels of corn with a sharp knife. Turn the knife to the dull side and scrape the cob all the way down to remove all the bits of kernel and creamy milk inside. (I do this inside the bowl because it goes everywhere if you cut it on a board.)
• Add the red bell peppers, jalapenos, heavy cream, milk, salt to taste, a generous amount of pepper and butter and mix it well. Pour into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Bake until thoroughly warmed through, 30 to 45 minutes.

SPICY CORN AND SHISHITO SALAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil with the lime juice, cumin and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in the red onion and garlic and set aside until ready to use. (Do this step first so the onions and garlic have time to mellow slightly in the dressing.)
• Place the corn kernels in a large bowl and set aside. In a medium (10-inch) sauté pan, heat the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add the shishitos, jalapeño and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender and beginning to brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Add the peppers and dressing to the bowl with the corn and toss well. Add the cheese, if using, and toss. Garnish with cilantro.

SAUTEED CORN WITH BLACK PEPPER AND MANCHEGO

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add corn and 3/4 teaspoon pepper; season with salt. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until corn is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cheese. Serve immediately, sprinkled with more cheese and pepper.
