Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Ingredients

Begin by preparing the corn, lima beans, and cherry tomatoes. If using frozen lima beans, ensure they are thawed.

2

Sauté the Vegetables

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the corn and lima beans, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the beans are tender.

3

Add Cream and Tomatoes

Stir in the heavy cream and cherry tomatoes. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften and the mixture to thicken slightly.

4

Seasoning

Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

5

Garnish and Serve

Remove from heat, garnish with fresh basil, and serve warm.
