Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons white miso
  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • 2 teaspoons chili crisp
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 large leek white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 medium zucchini cut into 1/4-inch dice
  • 2 cups corn kernels
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (be sure to zest the lime first)
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest

Instructions

  • In small bowl, whisk together cream and miso until smooth. In separate small bowl, stir together honey and chili crisp.
  • Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add leek and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until softened and translucent, stirring frequently. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
  • Add zucchini, corn, salt and pepper. Cook 4 to 6 minutes or until vegetables are tender and the corn is bright and just starting to get lightly golden in spots, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove from heat and stir in basil, lime juice, lime zest and cream mixture.
  • Transfer to serving bowl and drizzle with chili crisp honey (microwave the honey for 5 to 10 seconds if it’s too thick to drizzle). Serve warm or at room temperature.
