Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh corn kernels (or frozen corn)
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp pure honey
- 1 tsp kosher salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Shuck the fresh corn and cut off the kernels from the cob. If using frozen corn, measure out about four cups and let it thaw.
- Heat Your Skillet: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely until bubbling slightly, but avoid burning.
- Sauté the Corn: Add the fresh or thawed corn to the skillet. Stir frequently, letting each kernel soak up the buttery goodness for about 5-7 minutes or until they start turning golden brown.
- Add Honey and Seasonings: Drizzle in the honey while stirring gently to combine evenly. Sprinkle in salt and pepper based on your taste preferences.
- Cook Until Perfect: Continue cooking for another minute or two so that all flavors meld together perfectly, creating a shiny glaze on each kernel.
- Serve Warm: Transfer your Sweet & Salty Honey Butter Skillet Corn onto plates or into a serving bowl. Enjoy warm as an irresistible side dish or snack!
