Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon drippings in the pan.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Corn

    Add butter to the skillet with the bacon drippings. Once melted, add the fresh corn kernels and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Stir in the heavy cream, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly.

  4. 4

    Finish with Bacon

    Crumble the cooked bacon and mix it into the creamed corn. Cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
