If you’re invited to a summer dinner party at my house, chances are you’ll get to taste my Parmesan Zucchini and Corn side dish. I absolutely love the combination of zucchini, corn and parmesan so I’m always excited when zucchinis are in season! I bump up the flavor in this dish by adding dried herbs, garlic and a hint of zesty, citrusy lime.
To make this side dish, I start by frying some garlic in a little oil. Then I add the zucchini, corn and dried herbs and cook for another few minutes. Just before serving, I stir in some lime juice and cilantro leaves. I top with some grated parmesan and there you have it – a delicious side dish which only takes 10 minutes.
To make Parmesan Zucchini and Corn, you will need the following ingredients:
Add the olive oil to a large pan or skillet and heat over medium high heat.
Add the garlic to the pan and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly until fragrant.
Add the zucchini, corn, basil, oregano and thyme to the garlic and cook for 3-4 minutes until the zucchini has softened slightly. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the lime juice and cilantro and mix well.
Sprinkle with parmesan and serve immediately.
