Foto: Barefeet In The Kitchen
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh corn (about 4 ears worth)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion (chopped into ½-inch pieces, about 1 cup)
- 1 13 ounce kielbasa sausage, sliced as thinly as possible
- 3 small Italian zucchini (sliced thin about 4 cups)
- 1 tablespoon butter (room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon chile powder
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons)
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
- Lime wedges (for serving)
Steps
-
Remove the kernels from the corn and set aside. Warm the oil in a very large skillet, over medium high heat. Add the yellow onion and kielbasa to the skillet and saute 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly browned. Add the corn and the squash. Cook, stirring frequently, until barely wilted and still slightly crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Stir together the butter, mayonnaise, salt, chile powder, and cayenne. Add the mixture to the skillet. Stir well to coat and remove from heat.
-
Drizzle with the lime juice and sprinkle with the red onion, cheese and cilantro. Stir to combine. Serve with lime wedges, for an extra kick of lime, if desired.
