SAUTEED SUMMER SQUASH WITH BELL PEPPERS AND ONIONS



Sauteed Summer Squash with Bell Peppers and Onions image

Provided by Mary Younkin

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 of one yellow onion (cut into 1" pieces)
1 red bell pepper (cut into 1" pieces)
About a dozen small (2-3 inch pattypan squash, stems removed and then quarted)
1 medium Italian zucchini (cut into 1"pieces)
1 small yellow crookneck squash (cut into 1" pieces)
kosher salt
fresh cracked pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the olive in a large skillet and then add the onions. Cook at medium heat, for about 2 minutes, stirring infrequently. Stirring infrequently is the key to a great saute - the more your stir, the less the veggies will be crisp as desired. Add the bell pepper, let that cook for a couple minutes and then add the squash. Stir to combine and then leave it alone for a few minutes.
  • Sometimes I will cover this will a lid for a few minutes, but it depends on how everything is cooking. Check to see how to squash is cooking, flip everything over in the skillet or stir gently. If you are not stirring it often, you will see the edges begin to crisp and brown on the vegetables.
  • If the skillet is dry or things appear to be sticking to it, just splash a little bit of water into the skillet. When the veggies are done to the level that you desire, remove from the heat and serve immediately. Enjoy!

YELLOW SQUASH AND RED PEPPER SAUTE



Yellow Squash and Red Pepper Saute image

This is my favorite way to have yellow squash. I have to fight my husband for it because he loves it, too. I am estimating all the amounts. I usually just toss mine together with whatever amounts of squash and red pepper I have. I love the bright red and yellow colors dancing in the pan! Sometimes I sprinkle a little balsamic vinegar at the end and let it caramelize on the squash....not as beautiful a color but quite tasty.

ASPARAGUS, SQUASH, AND RED PEPPER SAUTé



Asparagus, Squash, and Red Pepper Sauté image

An appealing vegetable trio is enlivened by a wine-scented sauté.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 tablespoons light olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 medium red bell peppers, cut into short strips
2 medium zucchini or yellow summer squash, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/4 inch thick
6 ounces slender asparagus, bottoms trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil and wine in a wide skillet. Add the bell peppers, squash, and asparagus, and sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until all the vegetables are tender-crisp to your liking, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
  • Now that the seasons for fresh produce have been stretched by imports, it's not quite as much of a thrill to see the first asparagus of early spring. A pity, since I once considered the arrival of asparagus to the market as much an awaited sign of spring as forsythia and robins. Still, I like to stick with vegetables that are in season by buying locally. Freshly picked, slender asparagus is more agreeable to my eyes and palate than thick, stringy imported winter asparagus.
  • Spring asparagus needs to have only about half an inch trimmed off the bottom of the stalks; scraping is unnecessary when the stalks are slender. Asparagus makes a good side dish, simply steamed, with a tiny bit of nonhydrogenated margarine or whipped butter added. Microwave cooking yields good results; place the stalks in a small casserole dish with just enough water to keep them moist. Cover and cook until tender-crisp to your liking. How long this takes depends on the quantity and quality of the asparagus, so test often and serve right away.
  • Another great way to prepare slender asparagus is to cut it into 2- to 3-inch lengths and sauté it in olive oil with minced garlic.

This is a vegetable that expresses itself well in a wide range of dishes; just about every cuisine in the world knows how to show it off. It's an excellent low-calorie food, with only 19 calories per cup of raw squash. This dish is great on its own as a side dish, but it can also be incorporated into many other recipes.
