Awesome Buttery Grits With Corn Recipes

Steps:

• Remove husk from corn and roast on grill until slightly blackened. Remove the corn from the cob. Lightly chop the corn. (Also, see other roasting methods in 'note' below).
• Melt butter in a large skillet and saute the onions until slightly soft; add garlic and cook until both are softened.
• With chicken stock (or slightly less than 1 1/2 cups stock & 1 1/2 cups water), prepare the grits according to the package directions. Grits should be very soft.
• When the grits are almost done, add the corn kernels, sauteed onions and garlic, and cream. Simmer, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes or longer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Can garnish with thinly sliced green onions.
• Note: Kernels of corn can be cut off and roasted in a cast iron skillet in the oven or soak the corn in its husk in cold water for 30 minutes, then roast the whole ear in the husk on a grill about 20 minutes. Can, also, be roasted or in the oven for about 30 minutes. Once the corn is done, the silk is very easy to remove.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, combine butter, eggs, corn bread mix, whole and creamed corn and sour cream. Spoon mixture into prepared dish.
• Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine 3 cups water, grits, and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally and scraping down sides of pan with a heatproof rubber spatula, until thick and creamy, about 25 minutes.
• Remove from heat, add butter and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir until incorporated. Serve with hot sauce on the side, if desired.
