The Summer Succotash

Preparation Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 30-40 minutes
Yield: 6 Servings

Summer Succotash Ingredients

• 1-12 oz Frozen Lima Beans
• 2-3 cups Vegetable or Chicken Broth
• 1 Shallot, diced
• 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
• 4 cups Fresh or Frozen Corn
• 1 Red Pepper, diced
• 2 cups Cherry Tomatoes, halved
• ¾ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper

Summer Succotash Preparation Instructions

1. In a large high sided skillet, place the lima beans and 2 cups of broth. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 25 minutes or until just tender.
2. Next add the shallot and garlic to the beans. If needed, add more broth, ¼ cup at a time; just enough to have liquid to cook the vegetable in, not fully covered. Cook for 10 minutes or until the shallots are tender and opaque.
3. At this point, add the corn and peppers. If you need a little extra broth, add ¼ cup at a time. Cook for about 10 minutes or until the corn is crisp, but cooked.
4. When the corn is cooked, add 1 cup of sliced tomatoes to the bean and corn mixture. Cook for 5 minutes.
5. Remove from the pan from the heat. Add the remaining cup of tomatoes. Stir in the tomatoes, salt and pepper.
6. Serve warm or at room temperature.
