Nothing says summer quite like corn on the cob, but if you want to enjoy some delicious flavor I much prefer Buttered Herb Sauteed Corn Off the Cob.

This is one of those recipes that I hadn’t intended on photographing for the blog. I just happened to be making dinner and quickly realized how freaking good this would taste and I realized it was too delicious not to share.

chopped up herbs

I think fresh herbs make everything better. Gimme some fresh basil, thyme, or rosemary and I’ll make something delicious. I typically make my corn on the cob pure and simple – that is, I just throw the whole thing on the grill, husk and all, and cook it until its done. But, since my daughter has braces, I have to cut it off the cob for her so I figured I’d cut all of it off the cob and throw it in some butter and herbs. Boy was that good.

I served this up alongside some bacon jalapeno stuffed burgers and homemade fries. This probably ranked in my top 5 favorite summer meals!

    Loved this corn!!! I served it as a side dish but it was so delicious that I could just eat it as a meal! I am thinking it will be great tossed in a salad tomorrow also.

  2. Fresh corn is one of my favorites! I’ll have to try this out the next time I head out to a BBQ or a picnic.
