Easy Southern Honey Butter Skillet Corn Recipe (4 Ingredients)

Ingredients
To achieve the best texture and flavor, use high-quality ingredients and measure accurately.

4 Cups Frozen Corn Kernels (About 16 oz)Dairy & Eggs

Frozen corn is convenient and works perfectly without thawing. It retains sweetness and texture well during cooking.

Substitution: Use fresh corn (about 4 ears, kernels removed) or canned corn (drained well) if preferred.

4 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter

Provides the rich base for the sauce. Unsalted allows you to control the sodium level.

3 Tablespoons Honey

Adds natural sweetness that complements the corn. The honey mixes with the butter to create a glossy glaze.

4 oz Cream Cheese, Cubed

Creates the creamy, velvety texture that defines this dish. Cubing it helps it melt faster and more evenly.

Substitution: Use ½ cup heavy cream or sour cream if you do not have cream cheese.

Dairy-Free Option: Use vegan butter and plant-based cream cheese.Fruits & Vegetables

Optional Add-Ins

½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (adds a subtle smoky flavor)

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or parsley (for garnish)
