Ingredients
  

For the Corn
  • 4 cups Frozen Corn No thawing required; use high-quality frozen corn for the best flavor and texture.
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Adds richness and helps with browning; substitute with vegan butter or avocado oil if desired.
For the Seasoning
  • 0.5 teaspoon Kosher Salt Enhances flavor; start with less and adjust to your taste.
  • 0.25 teaspoon Smoked Paprika Adds depth and smokiness; feel free to replace with regular paprika if you prefer.
  • 0.25 teaspoon Garlic Powder Provides aromatic flavor; fresh minced garlic can elevate the taste even more.
  • 0.25 teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper Adds a hint of spice; substitute with white pepper for a milder option.
For Finishing Touches
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lime Juice Brightens the flavor profile; lemon juice works well as an alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Fresh Parsley Garnishes for freshness and color; swap with cilantro or green onions for a different twist.
