Stir Fried Zucchini With Corn And Sweet Bell Pepper Recipes

STIR-FRIED ZUCCHINI, CORN AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Trim the ends from the zucchini. Using a food processor, a mandolin or a sharp knife, cut the zucchini in thin, uniform rounds.
• Heat one tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet or a wok. Add the garlic, then immediately toss in the corn kernels, jalapeno pepper and red pepper and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the zucchini and stir-fry just until the zucchini begins to wilt, about two minutes.
• Fold in the basil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot. The dish can also be set aside to cool to room temperature before serving, but if so, the ingredients will benefit from the addition of another tablespoon of olive oil drizzled over them.
