A sweet and savory skillet style corn made from fresh corn, cut off the cob and sauteed in a cast iron skillet with bacon grease, butter and seasoning.

Provided by Tina Butler | Mommy's Kitchen

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 - 4 cups fresh corn off the cob (about 6 - 8 ears of corn)
2 - tablespoons bacon grease
3 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper to taste
all purpose Greek Seasoning or Tony Chachere Seasoning, to taste

Steps:

  • Remove the husks and silk from the corn. Wash and cut corn off the cob using a knife.
  • I use my Bundt cake pan. The cob fits perfectly in the middle holw and the kernels just come right off and fall into the pan.
  • In a large cast iron skillet, melt the butter and bacon grease together.
  • Add the corn, salt, pepper and seasoning, stir to combine.
  • Cook the corn over medium-high heat until the corn is done (about 15-20 min). Continue to gently stir the corn every so often as the corn cooks.
  • Add additional salt, butter and seasoning if needed before serving.

MAMA'S SKILLET CORN

Mama used to make this as soon as the fresh corn came in. It is similar to creamed corn in sweetness but the kernels are left whole. A great summertime dish. When my boys whine enough in the winter I will make this with frozen corn.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/3 cups cornmeal
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2/3 cup flour
1/4 cup corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons skim milk
1 teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons nonfat yogurt
1 teaspoon salt
2 egg whites, only

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Oil a cast ironskillet and heat in the oven while you make the batter.
  • Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl.
  • Whisk together buttermilk and corn syrup until well blended, add skim milk, whisk again. Whisk in yogurt until just dissolved.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff.
  • Pour milk mixture into flour mixture and stir well.
  • Fold in the egg whites.
  • Remove skillet from oven, spray with Pam (or melt a bit of butter in it). Pour in batter and bake about 15 minutes till lightly golden. Serve warm.
