Cut the celery into 1/4-inch slices. Dice the red bell pepper and onion into small pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Add the corn kernels and lima beans to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 3 minutes.
Pour in the vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Stir in the fresh parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
