Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
3 cloves garlic, minced, divided
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from about 2 ears), or frozen and thawed
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon fresh thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup thinly sliced white onion
1 large zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
4 poblano chiles, charred, peeled, stemmed, seeded and cut into 1-inch strips
12 (7 by 3-inch) no-boil lasagna sheets
2 cups shredded Oaxaca cheese, or mozzarella

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add 2/3 of the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Mix in the corn and saute for 5 minutes. Stir in the cream and thyme. Cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes for the flavors to incorporate. Turn off the heat and let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and cook for 1 minute. Mix in the zucchini and poblano strips and cook for 5 minutes for the flavors to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat.
  • Spread about 1/4 of the corn mixture over the bottom of an 11 by 8-inch baking dish. Cover with a layer of 3 lasagna sheets. Spread 1/4 of the poblano mixture and 1/4 of the cheese over the pasta. Repeat the layering 3 more times. Cover with foil.
  • Bake until the pasta is cooked and tender, about 50 minutes. Remove the foil and turn up the oven temperature to broil. Broil until golden brown and bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from about 2 ears), or frozen and thawed
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon fresh thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup thinly sliced white onion
4 poblano chiles, charred, peeled, stemmed, seeded and cut into 1-inch strips
1 large zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
Twelve 7-by-3-inch no-boil lasagna sheets
2 cups shredded Oaxaca cheese, or mozzarella

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add two-thirds of the garlic and the corn and saute for 5 minutes. Stir in the cream. Cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes for the flavors to incorporate. Turn off the heat and let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender and season with the thyme and some salt and pepper, and puree until smooth.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and cook for 1 minute. Mix in the poblano strips and zucchini and cook for 5 minutes for the flavors to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat.
  • Spread about one-quarter of the corn mixture over the bottom of an 11-by-8-inch baking dish. Cover with a layer of 3 lasagna sheets. Spread one-quarter of the poblano mixture and one-quarter of the cheese over the pasta. Repeat the layering three more times. Cover with foil.
  • Bake until the pasta is cooked and tender, about 50 minutes. Remove the foil and turn up the oven temperature to broil. Broil until golden brown and bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Poblano peppers, corn, and tomatoes are all at their peak in the summer, so this is the perfect time to make this lasagna.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level. If you like your food spicy, add an extra poblano pepper or two. If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the poblanos before cooking.
  • Make sure the lasagna is cooked all the way through before serving. Insert a toothpick into the center of the lasagna. If it comes out clean, the lasagna is done.
  • Let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before cutting and serving. This will help the lasagna hold its shape.
  • Serve the lasagna with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Conclusion:

This corn and poblano lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's packed with flavor and sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new lasagna recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
