  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup slivered fresh basil leaves

    In 10-inch skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-high heat until butter is melted. Add onion; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender.
  • 3
    Stir in edamame and broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until edamame are tender.

    Stir in corn and salt. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until corn is hot. Sprinkle with basil just before serving.

  • Mild-flavored green soybeans or “sweet beans,” are a good source of heart-healthy soy protein. Find them in the freezer section of most supermarkets.
  • Serve this hearty side dish with barbecued chicken and cooked sliced beets tossed with a little reduced-fat vinaigrette dressing.
