Foto: Barefeet In The Kitchen
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound bacon (cut into 1/2" pieces)
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large green bell pepper
- 4 cups frozen corn
- 8 ounces Philadelphia cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (or the juice of 1 medium lime)
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce (I used Cholula hot sauce)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Steps
-
Cook the bacon over medium high heat, stirring frequently to separate, about 4-5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined dish. Drain off most of the grease, leaving a light coating on the pan.
-
Add the bell peppers to the hot skillet and saute over medium high heat for about a minute. Add the corn and cook for an additional 5 minutes or so, until the corn is hot.
-
Push the vegetables to the sides of the pan and add the cream cheese to the bottom of the skillet. Allow it to warm and begin to melt for a minute or two and then break it up with a spatula. Continue stirring until the cream cheese has completely melted and coats the vegetables.
-
Return the bacon to the skillet and stir to mix throughout. Add the lime, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well and taste. Adjust seasonings as desired. Serve warm.
