Since I had fresh zucchini from our vegetable garden, I also added some chopped zucchini to the pan with the corn. Simple seasonings are all that is needed for this fresh summer treat.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 4 minutes
Total Time: 14 minutes

Ingredients

• 3-4 Ears of Corn, shucked and cleaned
• 1 zucchini, chopped
• 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
• Salt and Pepper, to taste (I start with 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/8 teaspoon pepper)

Directions
Heat skillet to low heat.
Meanwhile, shuck and clean corn. Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels of corn off the cob.

Chop the zucchini into small pieces about 1/2-inch thick. This size will cook more quickly in the pan.

When pan is warm, put pat of butter in the skillet and stir to coat the pan. Put corn kernels and chopped zucchini in the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally; after four minutes of sauteing the dish is done. Serve and enjoy!
