Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: Red pepper flakes for a touch of heat

Instructions

  2. Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.
  3. Add diced zucchini and corn kernels to the skillet.
  4. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the corn is heated through.
  5. Stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. If desired, add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
  6. Cook for another minute until the Parmesan cheese is melted and everything is well combined.

For best results, use fresh, high-quality Parmesan cheese. If using frozen corn, thaw it slightly before adding it to the skillet. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or onions for extra flavor.
