A quick and flavorful corn hash combining the sweetness of corn with a hint of heat from chile, brightened with lime and cilantro.
1. Prepare Ingredients
Shuck four ears of sweet corn and use a sharp knife to remove the kernels. You should end up with about two cups of corn kernels.
2. Cook Onion and Chile
In a heavy skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat until it begins to sizzle gently. Add the diced red onion and finely chopped hot chile. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become slightly soft.
3. Season with Salt
Sprinkle a bit of salt over the onion and chile, stirring it in for about a minute to enhance their flavors.
4. Cook Corn Kernels
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the corn kernels to the skillet. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender and begin to caramelize, taking on a light golden color.
5. Finish with Lime and Cilantro
Once the corn is cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and squeeze lime juice over the top. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, taste, and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.
