Southwestern Corn Skillet With Chile And Lime Food

SOUTHWEST CORN, CHILI, AND CUMIN SAUTé

Steps:

• Char poblano chilies directly over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop chilies. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion and sauté until almost tender, about 6 minutes. Add corn, oregano, 1 teaspoon chipotle chilies, and poblano chilies and sauté until corn is heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in radishes, 1/2 cup cilantro, lime juice, and lime peel. Sauté until radishes are slightly softened but still retain their color, about 2 minutes. Add more chipotle chilies by 1/2 teaspoonfuls, depending on spiciness desired. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cilantro. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired, and serve.
• Fresh green chilies, often called pasillas; sold at Latin American markets and some supermarkets.
