Southwestern Sauteed Corn Recipes

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, saute red pepper and jalapeno in butter until tender. Add cumin; cook for 30 seconds. Add corn and cilantro; saute 2 minutes longer or until heated through.

Steps:

• Combine corn, bell pepper, jalapeno, onion, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir until evenly combined.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add corn mixture and cook until onion has softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in black beans and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat and sprinkle cilantro over the top.

Steps:

• 1. In large skillet heat butter over medium heat, add corn. Cook and stir 3-5 minutes until slightly tender.
• 2. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add diced plum tomatoes, salt, cumin, lime juice, diced green peppers, diced green onions and diced chili peppers.
• 3. Cook an additional 3-4 minutes, remove from heat, add cilantro and real bacon bits (optional).
• 4. Best chilled over night to absorb all flavors.

Steps:

• Remove the husks and the silk from the corn and cut the kernels off as close to the husk as possible without removing any of the husk. You should have about 7 cups of kernels.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy saute pan. Add the corn, salt, and pepper and saute uncovered on medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the starchiness in the corn is gone. Taste, for salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Char poblano chilies directly over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop chilies. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion and sauté until almost tender, about 6 minutes. Add corn, oregano, 1 teaspoon chipotle chilies, and poblano chilies and sauté until corn is heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in radishes, 1/2 cup cilantro, lime juice, and lime peel. Sauté until radishes are slightly softened but still retain their color, about 2 minutes. Add more chipotle chilies by 1/2 teaspoonfuls, depending on spiciness desired. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cilantro. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired, and serve.
• Fresh green chilies, often called pasillas; sold at Latin American markets and some supermarkets.
• ** Chipotle chilies canned in a spicy tomato sauce, sometimes called adobo, are available at Latin American markets, specialty foods stores, and some supermarkets.

Steps:

• In a 2-quart microwave-safe casserole dish, combine corn, bell pepper, onion and butter.

• Stir in cumin, salt and ground pepper. Cover and let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Remove the frozen corn from the freezer to begin defrosting.
• To prepare the Poblano chiles, place them directly over gas flame on your stove. Allow the skin to char and blister before turning using long tongs (or well padded fingers). Once all sides are charred, about five minutes, toss the peppers in a resealable bag and close. Set aside about ten minutes to allow the heat to steam the chiles. Once cooled, peel and seed the peppers, and give them rough chop.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for two or three minutes until the onions are tender. Stir in the garlic, cumin and epazote/oregano and continue to cook another 30 seconds.

• Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro and lime juice.
• Serve with lime wedges.
