This Roasted Corn recipe is a quick and easy side dish made with frozen corn caramelized in a savory mix of onions and garlic. It's easy enough for a weeknight and can be made all year long. It's the BEST way to roast corn on the stovetop and will be ready to devour in just 20 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds frozen corn kernels
  • ½ onion (diced (yellow, brown, or sweet onion))
  • 1½ tbsp garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • kosher salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat (I prefer cast iron skillets, but any skillet will work).

  2. 2

    Once hot, add in butter and oil until melted. Add in diced onion and garlic. Saute for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and translucent. The pan should stay very hot, but not so hot that they burn.

  3. 3

    With the pan very hot, add in frozen corn kernels. Continue to cook for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. It is done when the kernels are soft and are spotted with deep shades of brown. Finish with salt and pepper to taste.
