"A simple mix of heavy cream, fresh corn, cilantro and fresh lime juice. Sauteed where the corn becomes creamy and sweet. A great side dish not only for Mexican dishes but any main dish. the lime and cilantro gives it a nice fresh flavor. Serve along side tequila chicken, spicy margarita shrimp or your favorite tacos."

Step 1

Base ... In a medium size saute pan, add the butter and bring to medium high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook 1-2 minutes, then add in the corn and reduce to medium heat.
