- 2 pound frozen corn
- 5 clove garlic minced
- 1 cup light thickened cream
- 1 cup light cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp sugar (optional)
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup parmesan (freshly grated )
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
Steps
in a large pot over medium heat, melt butter.
Add the garlic and cook for 30-45 second until fragrant (do not brown).
Add the light cream and cream cheese and stock chicken. Whisk until smooth and fully combined.
Let it gently simmer for 2-3 min until slightly thickened.
Stir in the frozen corn, salt, black pepper, sugar and nutmeg. Mix well and simmer gently for 6-8 min until the corn is tender and the sauce is creamy.
Stir in 1/2 cup grated parmesan and mix until melted and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer to an oven safe dish, sprinkle extra Parmesan on top, and broil for 5 min until golden and slightly crisp. (200°C)
Let rest a few min (thicken slightly) then serve warm with chopped parsley on top.
Enjoy!
