Ingredients
- 1/4 cup onion
- 1/4 cup red bell peppers
- 1 cup zucchini
- 4 teaspoons canola oil
- 1/2 cup sweet corn kernels
- 1/4 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 dash red chili flakes
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 tablespoon bottled barbecue sauce
Preparation
- Dice onion, cut bell pepper julienne style and slice zucchini.
- Heat oil, onion and corn in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently until onion turns translucent and corn begins to brown.

- Remove from heat and stir in barbeque sauce. Divide into 4 portions and serve.
Helpful hints
- 1 medium ear of fresh corn yields 3/4 to 1 cup of corn kernels. You can also use frozen or low-sodium canned corn.
- 1 medium-sized zucchini yields 1 cup sliced.
- Julienne means to cut in thin, long strips.
- Compare labels to select commercial barbeque sauce with the lowest sodium content.
