Servings: 4 servings
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 4 large ears fresh corn kernels removed, about 3 cups
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- ⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper adjust to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh Italian Parsley chopped
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and the foaming subsides, add the corn and cook, tossing and shaking the corn.
Cook the corn until it's heated through and tender, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and bring to a simmer for about 30 seconds.
Add the cheese and stir to melt, continuing to stir until the corn is covered in a thick cream sauce. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
