Sauteed Fresh Corn - A Family Feast

Sautéed Fresh Corn

Our Sautéed Fresh Corn recipe is the easiest AND most delicious way to prepare fresh corn!

Yield: 6-8 servings 1x
Prep: 15 minsCook: 10 minsTotal: 25 minutes
Scale:

Ingredients

  • 8 ears of corn on the cob
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon superfine sugar* or caster sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Husk the ears of corn, removing the husks and silk. Cut the kernels off each ear – see our How-To page here for some tips to make this easy to do.
  2. In a large sauté pan, over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the corn and sauté – stirring frequently so that the corn cooks evenly in the pan. After about 6-7 minutes, start testing for doneness – you want the corn to be cooked but still crisp, not mushy.
  3. When cooked, turn off the heat and sprinkle with salt, pepper and sugar.

Notes

Adapted from Barefoot Contessa Parties! cookbook

*You can buy superfine sugar at most supermarkets. Or – in a clean, electric coffee grinder, place several tablespoons of regular white granulated sugar and pulse in the grinder until the sugar is a superfine consistency.
