Corn and Chile Succotash image

This recipe could hardly be easier. It doesn't need to be watched super carefully because you actually want it to burn a little bit because there is nothing tastier than charred corn. This dish is incredibly versatile and can be served as a side dish or incorporated into a taco or Mexican salad dish or you can chop some avocado and tomatoes and make an easy "grilled" corn salsa.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

26 -32 ounces frozen corn, NOT thawed (I prefer white and yellow mix)
1 medium pasilla chiles or 1 medium poblano chile
1 cup chopped onion (sweet onion or red onion)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried mexican cilantro

Steps:

  • Chopp onion and chile such that the pieces are comparable in size to the kernels of corn.
  • In a large skillet (that you have a lid for), heat oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add chopped onion and chile and cook until onions are translucent but still firm (3-5 minutes).
  • Pour frozen corn into skillet. Stir as much as possible and then cover.
  • Cook covered for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir corn mixture. Corn should be thawed at this point.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes without stirring. You want to corn to char a little bit but not too much.
  • When corn get some dark brown spots from the heat (but ideally not black), remove from heat.
  • Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried cilantro.
  • Serve and enjoy!
