RECIPE BY Southern Living

Sweet, creamy, and decadently rich, this fried corn would be great nestled next to a piece of fried chicken and a side of greens.

Ingredients

  • 8 bacon slices
  • 6 cups fresh sweet corn kernels (about 8 ears)
  • 1 cup diced sweet onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

How to Make It

Step 1

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes or until crisp. Remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving 2 Tbsp. drippings in skillet. Coarsely crumble bacon.

Step 2

Saute corn and next 3 ingredients in hot drippings in skillet over medium-high heat 6 minutes or until tender. Add cream cheese and half-and-half, stirring until cream cheese melts. Stir in sugar and next 2 ingredients. Transfer to a serving dish, and top with bacon.

Turned out well, and didn't require oven to cook, which during Thanksgiving is helpful. Guests liked it. Not as good as corn casserole though.

Even my husband who doesn't like corn unless it is on the cob, said he liked this recipe and would eat it again. I used fat free cream cheese and it was fine. Next time I might try using frozen corn instead of cutting it off the cob. This one's a keeper!

I made this for Christmas. It was delicious. I prepared it with frozen silver queen corn. I will definately make it again when fresh corn is afordable.

This was absolutely wonderful. I just made last Sunday and I used fresh peaches and cream corn, I only used 1/3 of 1/3 fat free cream cheese and used fat free half and half. Everyone loved it.
