Grilled Maque Choux (A Cajun Succotash)
- 12 ears fresh corn
- 1 large red pepper
- 1 large green pepper
- 12-1 small jalapeno (seeded and finely chopped)
- 1 large onion (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 14 cup chicken broth (optional depending on consistency)
- 14 cup evaporated milk
- salt and pepper
- grill 2 ears of the corn directly over the heat until black-speckled on all sides.
- grill the peppers until quite blacked on all sides and place in a plastic bag to steam for 15 to 20 minutes.
- slice the corn off the cob (about half way down the kernels) and using the back of a knife, scrub the juicy remains of the corn kernels into a bowl.
- Do the same with the grilled corn.
- Remove most of the blackened skin from the peppers, seed and chop.
- Cook the onion and corn in a large cast iron skillet, stirring for 15 minutes.
- If too dry or if corn is sticking, add chicken broth to adjust.
- Add the peppers and milk and continue to cook while scraping and stirring about 5 minutes more.
- Season to taste and serve.
