Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 garlic clove, minced
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from about 3 ears)

Preparation

  1. Melt butter with oil in heavy large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, both bell peppers, and garlic; sauté until peppers are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add corn, zucchini, yellow squash, and lima beans; sauté until vegetables are just tender, about 7 minutes longer. Stir in 3 tablespoons parsley and marjoram. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
