Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garnish and Optional

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
  • Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Corn: If using fresh corn, carefully remove the kernels from the cob. For frozen corn, thaw it either in the microwave or on the stovetop. If using canned corn, drain and rinse thoroughly before using.
  2. Cook the Cajun Corn: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the prepared corn to the skillet and stir well to coat the kernels evenly with the butter. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), and salt and pepper over the corn. Stir well to ensure all the spices are incorporated. Continue cooking the corn for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is heated through and develops a slight caramelization.
  3. Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the Cajun corn with freshly chopped parsley and, if desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish or a tasty snack.

Notes

  • Adjust the Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper to control the dish’s spiciness according to your preference.
  • For an extra flavor boost, add diced bell peppers or jalapeños while cooking.
  • To make a creamier version, stir in a splash of heavy cream or cream cheese at the end of cooking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave before serving.
