Cookware
chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · nonstick skillet · slotted spoon · stirring spoon · tongs
Directions
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until it’s crispy, about 3–5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
- Pat the chicken dry and cut it into bite-sized pieces; season with salt and pepper.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat and cook the chicken until it’s golden and cooked through, 4–5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to move the chicken to a plate, leaving the juices behind.
- On a clean cutting board, trim and slice the onion into thin half-moons and mince the garlic.
- In the same skillet, add the onion, garlic, corn, and the spices. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and starting to brown, about 4–5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes (halved) and peas; stir to combine and cook until heated through, about 4 minutes.
- Mince the parsley and crumble or chop the bacon; return the chicken, bacon, and parsley to the skillet and cook until everything is warmed through, about 2 minutes, reserving a small amount of parsley for garnish.
- Divide the succotash onto plates and sprinkle with the remaining parsley for garnish.
Two tips
- Prep the onion and parsley while the bacon cooks to save time and keep things moving.
- For a serving variation, spoon the succotash over crusty bread or serve with rice if you have it on hand.
