Quick Vegetable Stew with Basil and Chili
Main Dishes • Italian
Description
Perfect as a side dish for meat dishes, for barbecue (especially in winter on the terrace) or as a standalone dish when ordinary salads have become boring :) You can add spices to taste, but if the ingredients are fresh and flavorful, there's no need to spoil their taste with spices. Depending on the season and your preference, you can add young corn, fresh snap peas, or beans (I do not recommend adding frozen ones) and cauliflower.
Ingredients
- Courgette 3 pieces
- Orange Bell Peppers 3 pieces
- Mild Chili Spice 1 piece
- Fresh basil leaves a pinch
- Sweet Red Onion 2 pieces
- Marinated cherries 10 pieces
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
First, chop the zucchini, bell pepper, and onion into large pieces. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
Step 2
In a well-heated wok pan with a small amount of olive oil, first add the zucchini and finely chopped chili pepper. Stirring frequently, sauté for no more than five minutes.
Step 3
Then add the bell pepper and continue to sauté, stirring often.
Step 4
After one and a half to two minutes, add the onion and, stirring frequently, sauté for about two minutes. Then add the tomatoes and sprinkle in a couple of pinches (to taste) of dried basil. To prevent the tomatoes from releasing too much juice, remove the pan from the heat and continue to stir.
Step 5
After a minute, the dish is ready to serve; only then add salt and pepper to taste, so the vegetables do not release juice and become mushy.
