Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups sweet corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
- 1.5 cups lima beans (frozen or canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium shallot, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup Romano cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the sliced mushrooms.
Cook the mushrooms for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and are golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the shallot and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Add the garlic, fresh thyme, and a pinch of kosher salt to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the sweet corn and lima beans and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
Return the cooked mushrooms to the skillet and stir to combine. Season the mixture with the remaining kosher salt and black pepper.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the grated Romano cheese until evenly distributed.
Transfer the succotash to a serving platter or bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm as a side dish or a light main course.
