1 onion, chopped fine
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
2 medium zucchini, rinsed and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 3 cups)
1 medium yellow squash, rinsed and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup fresh corn kernels (cut from about 2 ears)
2 tomatoes (about 3/4 pound), cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 tablespoons minced fresh orégano leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried, crumbled

Steps:

  • In a large deep skillet cook the onion and the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, add the zucchini, the yellow squash, the bell pepper, and the corn, and cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring, for 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste and simmer the stew, covered, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.

Solid 4/5. The stew was hearty and comforting, and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. I would have liked a bit more depth of flavor, but overall it was a good meal.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some diced zucchini and yellow squash, and it turned out great!

Disappointing. The vegetables were overcooked and the broth was bland.

I'm not a huge fan of stews, but this one changed my mind. The combination of vegetables and herbs was perfect, and the broth was incredibly flavorful. Will definitely make this again!

Not bad, but I think it could use a bit more seasoning. I'll try adding some paprika and garlic next time.
