Yield: 6 servings
Prep: 15 minsCook: 15 minsTotal: 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3/4 cup red onion, diced the same size as a kernel of corn

1 orange bell pepper, diced the same size as a kernel of corn

1 red bell pepper, diced the same size as a kernel of corn

1 green bell pepper, diced the same size as a kernel of corn

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Kernels cut from 5-6 ears of corn (approximately 4 cups) - See How to Easily Cut Fresh Corn Kernels off the Cob

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil


Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently for about 4 minutes, or until the onions are soft. Then add the bell pepper to the pan and sauté for 2-3 more minutes.
  3. Add the butter to the pan with the onions and peppers, and allow the butter to melt.
  4. Add the corn, salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently for about 4 more minutes. (Be careful not to overcook the corn – you still want it tender but not mushy.)
  5. Remove the corn from the heat and stir in the basil.
  6. Serve immediately.
