Description

Every time I buy fresh corn on the cob, it’s inevitable that there are a few ears left in the bottom of the veggie drawer, forgotten and getting starchy. Here’s a fast sauté that will spiff up corn that’s not fresh enough to munch off the cob.

Ingredients

Goes Well With

anything grilled, beef, chicken, sliced ham, fried tofu, fish fillets, sausage, tossed salad

Directions

  1. Cut corn off the cob. Pour oil into large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is warm, add corn kernels. Sprinkle with ½ tsp. Adobo and sauté for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Turn heat to medium and cover for 5 minutes.
  2. Remove lid and stir in ¼ tsp. more Adobo seasoning and black pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes and serve.

Notes

*This recipe uses Adobo, a blend of salt and herbs. I think of Adobo as my “reach-for-it-anytime seasoning.” You can easily substitute salt for it, although the finished dish won't have quite the same flavorful punch. QQM Adobo starts with the best-quality salt—RealSalt™—and is hand-blended with select herbs. Check out Adobo in the QQM Store.
