Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon of oil
  • ½ cup onion diced, yellow or red
  • 4 garlic minced, cloves
  • 4 ½ cups zucchini diced
  • 1 hominy drained, canned 20-ounce
  • ½ cup cherry tomato halved
  • ½ to 1 lime juiced (depending on how much sourness you prefer)
  • 1 ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro minced

Instructions

  1. In a large pan (with a lid) over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add onion and garlic and saute for 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. Add the zucchini, hominy, jalapeno, tomatoes, lime juice, chili powder, and salt, stir, lower the heat to low, and cover with a lid for 15 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced cilantro and serve as a side dish.

Notes

  • Customize the heat level: Make the sauteed corn and zucchini milder with a mild pepper or use less jalapeno. Add jalapeño seeds or use a hotter pepper (serrano, poblano, etc.) for more heat.
  • Season to taste: Taste and adjust the levels of lemon/lime juice, salt, and chili powder.
