I'm going to tell you how to make this yummy yummy Corn Side Dish. It's so easy and takes maybe 10 minutes to make! Hope you enjoy as much as I did! :)
We were having chicken for dinner and I was tired of just having some plain corn on the side. So I came up with this Corn Side Dish. I had a frozen bag of corn and a can of Mild Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies.
I also had a half of purple onion. I call it purple, some call it red. Looks purple, so we're going with purple onion. :) And I had one of our favorite McCormick seasonings, Mesquite. Spicy....which my husband loves.
So I chopped my half onion into small pieces, any size will work though. Placed in a bowl, poured in some olive oil. I didn't measure the amount, just enough to give it a bit of a coating and then I added a half of package of the Mesquite seasoning. Mixed it until all the onion was coated. Once that was done I placed it in a skillet placed on medium heat. Saute for about 3 minutes.
While the onions are cooking, I cooked my frozen (steamable) bag of corn for 4 minutes in the microwave. Once that was done I added the corn to the seasoned onion, mixed it well to get all the corn coated. Then I added the Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies, I drained the juice before adding.
Again, mix it well to get all those flavors mixed together. Stir around in skillet for just a few minutes. Watch it so it doesn't stick. That's never fun!
Looks so delish, right? Oh it was. I ended up making a second batch the next night and we had it with Talapia. Yummy! We're going to try this next time with black beans, shredded chicken.....a taco. Imagine how yummy that would be!! :)
Yummy! And the beauty of this recipe, you can alter the ingredients to how you like. More onion, less corn....etc. I hope you enjoy!
Until the next time....
