Description

This simple fried corn recipe is so popular! 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

4 ears corn (about 3-4 cups)
2Tolive oil (light)
1⁄2tAdobo* (or salt) + 1/4 teaspoon additional
1⁄8tblack pepper

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.

Instructions

  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.
