Best Sautéed Jalapeño Corn Recipes

SKILLET CORN WITH JALAPENO

Steps:

• Remove the husks and silks from the corn and use a sharp knife to slice the kernels off the cob.
• Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet (cast iron works well) over medium heat. Add the corn and diced jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn is just starting to get tender, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle the sugar over the top and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Continue to cook, stirring, for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until corn is tender to your liking and some of the kernels are beginning to brown slightly and caramelize. Serve immediately.

SAUTéED JALAPEñO CORN

Steps:

• Toast the cumin seeds in a hot dry pan for a minute or so to bring out the fragrant oils, let cool a bit, then pulverize in a mortar along with a pinch of coarse salt.
• Cover the bottom of a sauté pan with a coating of olive oil, put over medium heat, and add the garlic. (A tip to avoid burning garlic: Instead of adding chopped garlic to oil that may be too hot and will scorch it immediately, heat the garlic with the oil from the start, and you will see and hear it cooking gently and can prevent it from overheating.) When the garlic begins to sizzle, add the cumin and jalapeño and cook gently for another minute or so. Add the corn. Stir it while it cooks and, if needed, add a splash of water. The corn cooks quickly and will be done in 2 to 3 minutes. Finish with a few grinds of pepper and serve.
