Charred Nopales Skillet

Ingredients

• 2 cups Nopales
• 1.5 cups Sweet Corn
• 1 pcs White Onion
• 2 pcs Garlic
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1.25 tsp Kosher Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black Pepper
• 0.5 tsp Ground Cumin
• 1 pcs Lime
• 4 tbsp Cilantro

Method

1. Dice {nopales} into even pieces, dice {white_onion}, mince {garlic}, chop {cilantro}, and cut {lime} so everything is ready for the hot pan.
2. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot, add {olive_oil}, then add {nopales} in a single layer. Season with {kosher_salt} and cook, stirring only occasionally, for deep browning and to drive off their moisture, about 6 minutes.
3. Lower to medium-high heat, add {white_onion} and {sweet_corn} to the skillet with the charred {nopales}, season again with {kosher_salt} and {black_pepper}, and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until the {white_onion} is translucent and the {sweet_corn} is lightly blistered. Add {garlic} and {ground_cumin} and bloom for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Take the skillet off the heat, squeeze in {lime}, fold through {cilantro}, taste, and adjust with a final pinch of {kosher_salt} so the flavors pop. Serve right away while the edges stay charred.
