INSTRUCTIONS:
Preparing the Honey Butter Skillet Corn:
- Melt the Butter: Begin by melting the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt slowly so it doesn’t brown, ensuring it remains smooth and creamy.
- Add the Corn: Once the butter is melted, add the corn kernels to the skillet. If using fresh corn, make sure it’s been shucked and cut off the cob. Stir the corn into the butter, ensuring every kernel is well-coated.
- Incorporate the Honey: Drizzle the honey over the corn and stir well. The honey adds a wonderful sweetness that complements the natural sugars in the corn, creating a beautifully balanced flavor profile.
- Cook the Corn: Continue to cook the corn over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes. The corn should be tender but still slightly crisp. If you prefer softer corn, you can cook it a bit longer.
- Add the Cream: Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir to combine. The cream adds a rich, velvety texture to the dish, making it even more indulgent. Allow the corn to simmer in the cream for another 2-3 minutes.
- Season the Corn: Season the corn with salt and black pepper to taste. The salt enhances the sweetness of the honey and corn, while the pepper adds a slight kick, which is optional but recommended.
- Garnish: If desired, garnish the Honey Butter Skillet Corn with freshly chopped parsley or chives for a burst of color and fresh flavor.
Honey Butter Skillet Corn is best served hot, straight from the skillet. It pairs beautifully with a variety of main dishes, such as roasted chicken, grilled steak, or BBQ ribs. The sweetness of the corn and honey, combined with the rich butter and cream, makes it a comforting and satisfying side dish that everyone will enjoy!!
