Creamy Skillet Corn

Ingredients:

• 4 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Paprika or chili powder, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Corn:
   • If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cob. If using frozen corn, thaw and drain. If using canned corn, drain well.
2. Cook the Corn:
   • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is heated through and starts to lightly brown.
3. Make the Cream Sauce:
   • In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, and flour until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet with the corn.
4. Season the Corn:
   • Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
5. Simmer the Mixture:
   • Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and the corn is tender and creamy.
6. Garnish and Serve:
   • Transfer the creamy corn to a serving dish. Sprinkle with paprika or chili powder for a pop of color and a hint of spice.
