    One night I wanted to serve an alternative to a baked potato with a nice steak. I found several bags of corn I picked, cut off the ear and froze last summer. I just started throwing things onto the counter from the fridge and cupboards and came up with this. I've cooked it a couple of times since and this is the recipe I ended up with.

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons butter (can sub olive oil for a healthier version)
    • 4 small-medium cloves garlic, minced
    • 2 jalapeño peppers (more or less to taste) chopped
    • 2 ea. 1 lb packages frozen corn, thawed
    • 1 15 oz can diced tomatoes, drained (reserve juice for other use)
    • 2 green onions (white and green part) thinly sliced
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

    Directions

    1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
    2. Melt the butter
    3. Lightly saute the garlic, about 1 minute
    4. Add the chilies and saute for 2 minutes.
    5. Add the corn and cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.
    6. Add the drained tomatoes, stir to mix and cook another 2 minutes.
    7. Mix in the green onions, season with salt and pepper, taste, and add a little more butter if desired, and serve.
