  • 3/4 10-ounce packages frozen shelled edamame, (about 1 1/2 cups), thawed
  • 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 small zucchini, diced
  • 1 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoons ground cumin

  • 1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1/8 cup chopped fresh cilantro, or mint

Directions

  1. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add edamame and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes or according to package directions. Drain.

  2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.

  3. Add onion and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add zucchini and cook, covered, until the onions are starting to brown, about 3 minutes more. Add garlic, cumin, coriander and cayenne and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  4. Stir in tomatoes and bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.

  5. Stir in the edamame and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in cilantro (or mint) and lemon juice.
