Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red and green bell peppers, and cook for about 3 minutes until they start to soften.

  2. Add the finely chopped red onion to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. Stir in the minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, and cayenne pepper. Cook for another minute, stirring frequently to allow the flavors to meld together.

  4. Add the fresh corn kernels to the skillet and mix well to combine all the ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the Cajun corn simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The corn should be tender but still slightly crisp.

  6. Once the Cajun corn is cooked to perfection, remove the skillet from the heat. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
