Steps:

Cook, stirring, until squash begins to soften and look translucent, 3 or 4 minutes. Add garlic and corn. Cook for about 4 minutes, stirring often. Add minced chile pepper and season with salt and pepper. Add beans and about 1/2 cup bean broth and continue to cook, stirring, for another minute or two. Taste and adjust seasonings. If you want this to be a little more moist, stir in more bean broth, or just hold the bean broth and spoon directly over the bowls. Stir in cilantro and remove from heat.
