Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 1 small zucchini, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1.5 cups frozen lima beans, thawed
• 1.5 cups frozen or fresh corn kernels
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, allowing the butter to melt completely before proceeding.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion turns translucent and the pepper begins to soften.

Step 3

Stir in the diced zucchini and garlic. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini begins to soften but retains some crunch.

Step 4

Add the thawed lima beans and corn kernels to the skillet. Stir well to distribute the vegetables evenly and cook for 4-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the beans and corn to heat through.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chopped dill over the vegetables and season with salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from the heat and finish the dish by drizzling fresh lemon juice over the top. Toss gently to incorporate.

Step 7

Serve the dilled succotash warm as a side dish, or enjoy it as a light vegetarian main course.
