- ½ cup chopped shallots, (from 1 to 2 shallots)
- 1 large clove garlic, (minced)
- 2¼ cups fresh corn kernels, (cut from 3 large ears corn)
- 1½ cups seeded and diced zucchini, (from 2 small zucchini)
- 1½ cups seeded and diced tomatoes, (from 2 to 3 tomatoes)
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 1 (4-oz) log creamy goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped basil
Steps
-
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Do not brown.
-
Add the corn and zucchini and increase the heat to medium. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and sugar and continue to cook for about 2 minutes more, until the tomatoes start to break down. Break the goat cheese into chunks and stir it into the vegetables until creamy and well-combined. Off the heat, stir in the fresh basil along with 3 tablespoons of warm water. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve warm.
