SO EASY OLD FASHIONED SKILLET CREAMED CORN



So Easy Old Fashioned Skillet Creamed Corn image

You will need about 6 ears of corn for this to make 2-1/2 cups, depending on the size of the corn cobs. I saute a small onion in the butter for about 3 minutes before adding in the corn kernels but that is only optional. This can also be made using frozen corn, and the recipe can be doubled.

Time 20m

Yield 8

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is the best choice for this recipe, as it has the sweetest flavor. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Sauté the corn: Sautéing the corn in butter before adding the cream helps to bring out its sweetness and flavor.
  • Use heavy cream: Heavy cream gives the corn a rich and creamy texture. If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk or half-and-half, but the corn will not be as creamy.
  • Season the corn: Be sure to season the corn with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
  • Serve immediately: Skillet cream corn is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can make it ahead of time and reheat it gently over low heat.

Conclusion:

Skillet cream corn is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh corn, and it can be made in just a few minutes. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, skillet cream corn is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
