Spicy, buttery, sweet summer corn loaded with flavorful spices and garlic, this Mexi-smash-hit-dish is Chock. Full. Of Mexican peppers and sweet Vidalia onion, too! My Pan Fried Mexi-Corn beats the boots off of that canned stuff! And takes, literally, just minutes to make! What’s not to love?!
My all-time favorite is “shoepeg” corn, is a very tender, young corn, but you can use any kind your local store or farmer’s market happens to have! Yellow, white, or mixed works just as well!
And if there’s any leftovers, this dish has tons of other uses! This recipe makes for a fantastic addition on top of tacos and tostadas, or inside fajitas, burritos and chimichangas! Sprinkle on top of Mexican-style salads or nachos. Or fold into casseroles! Stir into chilies and stews, or make it a surprise addition to scrambled eggs and omelet fillings! The possibilities are endless!
So take advantage of that delicious summer corn, (*or even substitute fresh-frozen or canned in a pinch!), and make this one of your favorite go-to sides for any Mexican-stye meal year round! An easy to make side dish for cook-outs and family night! And the leftovers, if there are any!, are always a welcome treat sprinkled into anything your heart desires!
Be sure to save this one! You’ll be making this easy-peasy dish a lot! Hope you enjoy as much as we do! It’s a wonderful side dish for whatever you’re making tonight!

Made this the other night and both the wife and I really enjoyed it using canned corn. This will become a favorite. Can’t wait to make a chimichanga using this and pulled pork.
This sounds delicious. Can’t get the garlic and herb butter, I will have to make my own. I am looking forward to making this!
Thanks, Linda! I hope you all enjoy this as much as we did! Sure beats the heck out of those cans!
