Fresh Sautéed Corn

If you’re hankering for the flavor of freshly-picked corn without the mess of eating it off the cob, this Fresh Sautéed Corn is for you!

Fresh Sautéed Corn

Fresh Sautéed Corn

What’s the first thing you do whenever you have a fresh harvest of corn? If your answer isn’t “I set some aside to make corn on the cob immediately,” then we have two very different ways of appreciating our corn. Corn on the cob is the easiest, simplest, and purest way to enjoy corn—but sometimes, it does get a bit messy. If you’re part of the demographic that needs dentures, crowns, jackets, fillings, or just have sensitive teeth, you might also have trouble with all the hard biting it takes to enjoy corn on the cob.

To solve all those problems, please welcome: Fresh Sautéed Corn. It features all the buttery goodness of corn on the cob—without the cob! It also takes barely any time to prepare. All you have to do is melt a generous amount of butter on your favorite skillet, add in the corn, sauté for six to seven minutes, season with some salt and pepper, and it’s ready to eat! The longest part of the entire process is really just shucking the corn and cutting off the kernels beforehand.

Aside from the utter convenience of eating corn with a bowl and a spoon, another thing I love about this Fresh Sautéed Corn is the options you have for dressing it up. Want more flavor? Sprinkle some fresh chopped herbs like chives or parsley over the dish! Are you a cheese lover? Get your grater out and top it off with a generous serving! Searching for a spicy kick? Mix in red pepper and onions with your corn! The possibilities are endless!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ears corn on the cob
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Shuck the corn, removing husks and silk. Rinse and cut off the kernels from the cob.
