Ingredients | New Mexico Calabacitas Recipe

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 zucchinis, chopped

8 ears corn, kernels cut from cob

2 cups buttermilk

salt and ground black pepper to taste

¼ cup grated Chihuaua cheese, or to taste (Optional)

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Stir zucchini and corn into the onion mixture. Cover the skillet and continue cooking until the zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes more.

Pour buttermilk into the skillet. Season the corn mixture with salt and pepper; stir. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and continue cooking until hot, about 5 minutes more. Sprinkle with Chihuaua cheese.

To remove corn kernels from the cob using a Bundt(R) pan, stand the shucked corn cob upright, with the tip of cob placed in the center hole of the Bundt(R) pan. Holding the cob steady, use a sharp knife and make long downward strokes on the cob, separating the kernels from the cob.
