Twinkle Light Succotash Recipe
- 2 cups [290 g] baby lima beans, fresh or frozen
- Salt
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup [65 g] chopped Conecuh sausage
- 1 cup [150 g] chopped Vidalia® onion
- 1/4 cup [35 g] chopped celery
- 1/4 cup [35 g] chopped bell pepper, red or green
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 cups [435 g] fresh sweet corn kernels
- 1 cup [150 g] pickled okra, cut into 1/2 in [12mm] rounds
- 1 cup [150 g] halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 heirloom tomato, sliced into 1/4 in [6 mm] rounds (optional)
- 1/2 tsp Old Bay seasoning
- 1/4 cup [5 g] minced flatleaf parsley
- 1/4 cup [25 g] chiffonade green onion
Place the lima beans in a medium saucepan and add enough water to cover by 1 in [2.5 cm]. Bring to a boil, then add a dash of salt. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain and set the beans aside. While the beans are cooking, melt the butter in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and render the fat, stirring frequently, for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the sausage and leave the fat in the skillet. Add the onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic and cook over low heat for 5 to 6 minutes, or until just tender. Stir in the lima beans, corn, and okra and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the corn is tender and bright yellow. Turn the heat to high, add the cherry tomatoes and tomato slices, if using, and stir constantly for 2 minutes. Season with the Old Bay and adjust the salt. Garnish with the parsley and green onion and serve.
