Here smoky-flavored grilled mushrooms are served over a
black-bean-and-hominy succotash. Serve with: Cornbread and an
avocado-and-tomato salad.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 large portobello mushroom caps
1 medium zucchini, cut in half lengthwise
1 small red bell pepper, cut into quarters
2 ears of corn, husked
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon smoked or hot paprika
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed
1 15-ounce can hominy, rinsed
1 10-ounce package frozen baby lima beans, cooked according to package
directions
6 teaspoons prepared barbecue sauce
6 teaspoons toasted salted pepitas, (optional)
Preparation:
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Brush tops of mushrooms caps and both sides of zucchini and bell
pepper with oil. Grill along with corn, turning occasionally, until
tender and lightly charred on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes for the
mushrooms, zucchini and bell pepper and 8 to 10 minutes for the corn.
- Whisk vinegar, brown sugar, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large
skillet. Add the grilled mushroom caps and turn to coat. Bring to a boil
over medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat. Transfer the mushrooms
to a cutting board.
- Meanwhile, cut corn kernels off the cobs and cut the zucchini and
bell peppers into 3/4-inch pieces. Add to the marinade in the pan along
with black beans, hominy, lima beans and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon
salt. Return the pan to medium heat and cook, stirring, until the
succotash is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Slice the mushroom caps and serve on top of the succotash. Garnish
with a dollop of barbecue sauce and pepitas (if using).
