This side dish just speaks summer! It’s made from fresh corn on the cob and has just the right amount of sweetness!
Today I bring you a yummy and simple side dish! I had trouble not eating it all out of the skillet! It takes hardly any time at all to prepare it, and I kind of need simple dishes lately with the new baby. He’s doing great! He is just so sweet! He wakes up only once at night to eat. I know…I’m really lucky!!
I love buying fresh corn. Here’s a super simple trick to use when you cut it:
Cut it on a dish towel and then transfer it from the towel to your pot. Just shake off the towel in your sink when your done.
Summer Sauteed Corn and Onions
Ingredients
- 3 ears of fresh corn
- 1 onion
- Kosher salt and pepper
Instructions
- Remove the corn kernels from the cobs.
- Thinly slice onion.
- Saute the onion in the olive oil for about 5 minutes.
- Add the corn and season with salt and pepper. I used a 1/4 tsp pepper and a heavy pinch of kosher salt.
- Let this cook another 3 to 5 minutes and remove from heat and enjoy!

I am so ready for our fresh sweet corn to start coming in Jaren, love, love fresh corn! lol I will soon be busy freezing that corn too, but it is so worth it to have it all winter long. This recipe looks really good and I would have no problems eating it as I love onions, pepper and corn!! So happy to hear the baby is really good and doesn’t wake often for feedings. I was lucky that way too. My kids were sleeping through the night at 5 days and 9 days old. Enjoy that sleep!!! Hugs, Brenda
