Best 6 Mamas Skillet Corn Recipes

MAMA'S FRIED CREAM CORN

Steps:

• Remove corn from cobs by using a corn grater or knife, and mash the whole kernels a little. Slice bacon into 1-inch pieces. Cook bacon until brown in a large skillet. Remove bacon from skillet and add 1/2 stick butter to bacon grease. Over medium-high heat, pour in the corn. Fry in the grease and butter mixture. Lower the temperature and cook for 5 minutes, then put on simmer until corn is done, 10 to 15 minutes. Add black pepper, to taste. If corn seems too dry, add a little milk or water.
• Serve as a side dish with favorite meal.

SOUTHERN SKILLET CORN

Steps:

• Add the corn, salt, pepper and seasoning, stir to combine.
• Cook the corn over medium-high heat until the corn is done (about 15-20 min). Continue to gently stir the corn every so often as the corn cooks.

SKILLET MEXICAN STREET CORN

Steps:

• Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and coriander in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Check the corn; it should be slightly charred. If not, allow to continue cooking for 4 more minutes (stirring is fine at this point.)
• Once corn is sufficiently browned/charred, transfer to the bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Add cotija cheese, red onion, and cilantro and mix until well combined. Serve immediately.
