I added the fat with the veggies so it sauteed. If you want a char on your onions and peppers (and maybe even your fresh corn) add them first to the dry skillet and let sit undisturbed until they begin to color, then stir in the fat and frozen corn if using.
Cast Iron Skillet Sauteed Corn with Peppers and Onions on the Grill
2 C corn, either fresh or frozen-I had frozen
1/4 C green/red peppers, diced or sliced, any variety/combo you'd like-I used jalapenos
1/8 C onion, diced or sliced
2-3 tsp fat, either olive/vegetable oil or bacon grease-guess what I used:@)
S&P to taste
- Preheat cast iron skillet on grill grate-I added it when I lit the grill.
- Add peppers, onion and fat to skillet, saute for a couple minutes.
- Add corn and cook until desired doneness.
- Remove from heat and add S&P to taste.
Great idea to use your cast iron skillet on the grill. Have never tried it, but you can be sure I will now.

ReplyDeleteAmen to the cast iron. Joe thinks cast iron is for all manner of cooking :}
ReplyDeleteGreat tip Lynn, I love char on fresh corn! I have my grandmother's cast iron skillet, it needs some TLC and reseasoning! On a totally random note, I have to tell you I had a dream last night that you and your son drove down in his muscle car and we went to Ikea...don't ask me where that came from! :))
ReplyDeleteNow this looks yummy! Great idea. TY for sharing.

I haven't cooked with bacon grease in years, but I can still imagine just how good this would be. I do still put smoked bacon in with fresh green beans and I love that flavor. We did shrimp on the grill this week. I love using it for things that are a little "outside of the burger norm"!
ReplyDeleteWe love this; kind of dish...yummy
ReplyDelete...oh, and, we would RATHER have it cooked using bacon grease but......
ReplyDeleteWhat a fresh, summery side dish...thanks so much for sharing with us! This would be perfect to link up to my Create It Thursday post…it's live now!
ReplyDeleteFresh corn is 5 for A $1 in my local market --I'll be making this dish this week!
ReplyDeleteI have my husband's grandmothers cast iron skillet and it's good as new. It will be fun to try your yummy recipe on one of these scorcher days.
ReplyDeleteI made something very similar recently! It is delicious, I know!
