Fiesta Corn Saute is a snap to make and it packs incredible flavor with sweetness from the corn, a hint of spice from chili powder and a smoky finish from smoked paprika. You’re going to want this one at all of your backyard BBQs this summer.
I just have to get this out there…..I am in love with this corn dish! I mean it is seriously good…..like I couldn’t stop eating it good!
So let’s back up a bit…..I over-bought some fresh corn not too long ago for some other recipes I was working on. That left me with an abundance of corn that I needed to use. Since fresh corn is so yummy and delicious, I couldn’t let it go to waste….I needed an idea….fast.
That brings us to yesterday. As I was walking through the produce section of the grocery store, it all came to me and I quickly threw the ingredients I needed into my cart.
I started thinking about sauteing the corn and what I could add to it to make it taste amazing. That led to this incredible fiesta corn saute. First, I sauteed up some onion, garlic, red bell pepper and corn. But that wasn’t enough, so to boost the flavor factor up I added chili powder, smoked paprika and cilantro, with a little lemon juice to brighten everything up. The result was AMAZING! The corn is perfectly sweet, the chili powder adds a little spiciness and the smoked paprika, of course, adds a slight smokiness. Absolute perfection!
So, get yourself some corn and give this one a try. You won’t be disappointed!
