Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 (10 oz.) packages frozen corn, thawed
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Sauté the Corn: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the thawed corn and sauté, stirring occasionally, until the corn is soft and heated through, approximately 5 minutes.
- Add Butter and Honey: Stir in the butter and honey, mixing well until both have melted smoothly into the warm corn, creating a glossy, sweet coating.
- Incorporate Cream Cheese and Season: Add the softened cream cheese to the skillet. Season with coarse sea salt and pepper. Stir continuously until the cream cheese fully melts and integrates into the sauce, making it creamy and rich. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve Hot: Transfer the honey butter skillet corn to a serving dish and enjoy immediately while warm.
Notes
- Add a pop of color and freshness with chopped fresh parsley, chives, or green onions.
- For extra richness, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top just before serving.
- If you like a bit of heat, stir in red pepper flakes or diced jalapenos to balance the sweetness with spice.
