RED PEPPER 'N' CORN SKILLET

Red Pepper 'n' Corn Skillet image

This is an old recipe we used when I was growing up in Kentucky. We called it "fried corn" and made it as long as we could get corn on the cob. It's an attractive side dish and very tasty, flavored with bacon. -Barbara Marshall, Concord, California
