- Prepare the corn: To a large pan of rapidly boiling, salted water add the corn. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Remove from water and allow to cool.
- Prepare the okra: While the corn is cooking, toss the okra with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Skewer the okra and place it on the hot grill pan. Cook, turning occasionally, until the okra is tender and has golden brown grill marks.
