Southern Fried Skillet Corn

from ButterYum

makes 4 servings

Ingredients

    • 4 ears fresh corn, shucked and kernels removed

    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

    • 2 tablespoons canola oil

    • 2-4 tablespoons heavy cream

    • kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

    1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, combine the butter and oil.

    2. Add the corn kernels and stir frequently for 5-10 minutes, or until the corn begins to darken in color and smell a bit caramelized.

    3. Add cream and stir constantly until all the corn absorbs the cream.

    4. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.

Note

    • If your garden has an abundance of fresh basil, feel free to add a little chopped basil just before serving. Corn and basil go very well together.

    • For a southwestern flair, add a finely minced jalapeño while sautéing the corn.
