Canned Corn... BORING. Chili Lime Southern Fried Corn? WOW.
Alternate Flavour
If Chili Lime isn't your thing you can do a Garlic Herb blend. For one can of corn use:
- 1 clove of garlic finely diced or minced
- 1 tbsp Dried Parsley
- 1 tbsp butter
- salt/pepper to taste.
Alternate Corn
You can definitely use fresh corn sliced off the cob or frozen corn for this. I find canned corn has the most consistent quality and is easiest for this recipe.
Chili Lime Southern Fried Corn

Notes
This can also be slow cooked in the slow cooker if you are making it for a crowd. Add all the cans of corn to a slow cooker with the liquid from the can, add the chili and lime. Cook on low if you are starting this early or high if you don't have forever. Easy to set and forget! Add the butter at the end before serving.
