kcalIngredients
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast half (8 ounces), cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
12 ounces small red potatoes, boiled, halved or quartered
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from 2 ears)
1 scallion, thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
1/2 jalapeño chile, stem, ribs, and seeds removed, minced (1 tablespoon)
1 cup yellow or red cherry tomatoes (4 ounces), halved
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon fresh marjoram (roughly chopped if large)
Directions
- Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken breast and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the boiled red potatoes, fresh corn, and minced jalapeño. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are heated through and slightly crispy.
- Add Cherry Tomatoes and Scallions: Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced scallion, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
- Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, adding the coarse salt, freshly ground pepper, and chopped marjoram. Stir well to combine and heat through for an additional 2 minutes.
- Serve: Remove from heat and serve the summer hash warm, garnished with additional fresh marjoram if desired.
