Instructions

Step 1

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in saucepan to medium high. Fry cheese cubes for 2 minutes then flip for an additional 2 minutes. When two sides are golden remove to a plate.

Step 2

Add 1 tbsp oil to the pan and again on medium high heat add the zucchini for 1 minutes. Then add the corn, onion, scotch bonnet, salt and pepper, stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes. This amount of scotch bonnet gave just enough heat for us. Adjust as you like. Add tomatoes for another 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Remove the pan from the heat and toss with the cheese, chopped basil and a squeeze of lemon.
