Stir in the basil and red wine vinegar, season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Cook lima beans in vegetable broth with sugar and pinch of salt for about 7 minutes. Strain beans and set aside, reserve the liquid. In iron skillet, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and cook garlic, corn, and peppers about 1 minute. Add lima beans, tomatoes and a 1/4 cup or so of broth to keep pan from becoming dry. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more broth as it evaporates to keep mixture moist. Finally, allow the broth to reduce in final minutes of cooking so mixture is moist but not soupy. After cooking, add salt and pepper to taste. Optional: after cooking add thinly sliced fresh basil. Can make ahead and reheat.
