Tomato Garlic Corn Recipes

SAUTEED CORN WITH TOMATOES & BASIL

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute corn in oil until crisp-tender. Stir in the tomatoes, salt and pepper; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from the heat; sprinkle with basil.

TOMATO-GARLIC CORN

Steps:

• Trim the tops off 2 heads of garlic; sprinkle with olive oil and salt. Wrap in foil and roast at 350 degrees F, about 40 minutes. Squeeze the garlic out of its skin and mix with 1 grated tomato and 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan; season with salt, pepper and fresh thyme. Grill 4 ears of corn, turning, about 12 minutes. Cover with the tomato mixture.

SUMMER SHRIMP SCAMPI WITH TOMATOES AND CORN

Steps:

• Pat the shrimp very dry and season with salt and pepper. In a large (12-inch) skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and lightly golden in spots, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp to a plate.
• Add the tomatoes to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring just once or twice, until they start to blister in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring just once or twice, until the tomatoes burst and the corn is golden in spots, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until you smell garlic, about 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium, and add the wine and lemon juice, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until nearly evaporated, then add the butter and stir until melted. Add the shrimp and its juices and stir until warmed through. (If the sauce breaks and looks greasy, add 1 or 2 teaspoons of water and stir until emulsified.)
• Remove from heat, add the herbs, season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve with extra lemon for squeezing over, if you like.

Place on a dinner plate, and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on High power, turning corn once half way through. Cool until cool enough to touch, then slice corn kernels from the cob and place them in a serving bowl.
• Stir butter into the corn along with the tomatoes, jalapeno, red onion, garlic and cilantro. Season with salt, pepper, and seasoning blend. Mix well, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Some people like the salad warm, but I prefer to chill it a little before serving.
