Honey Butter Skillet Corn is a quick and delicious side dish featuring sweet corn cooked in a savory blend of butter, honey, and cream cheese. This creamy, slightly sweet corn recipe is perfect for a comforting addition to any dinner plate and can be made easily in just 15 minutes using a skillet.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter (preferably salted)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 bag (16 oz) frozen corn
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, cut into chunks
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat butter and honey: In a skillet pan set over medium-high heat, melt the butter together with the honey until fully combined and liquid.
  2. Cook the corn: Add the frozen corn to the skillet. Cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is heated through and softened.
  3. Add cream cheese and seasoning: Stir in the chunks of cream cheese, salt, and black pepper. Continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cream cheese has melted and everything is well combined.
  4. Serve immediately: Remove from heat and serve warm. Store any leftovers covered in a container in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Use salted butter for best flavor, but you can adjust salt to taste if using unsalted.
  • Stir occasionally to prevent corn from sticking to the skillet and to ensure even cooking.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
  • For a richer dish, consider adding a sprinkle of shredded cheese or fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley.
