Ingredients

• 2 cups Frozen corn kernels
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the frozen corn kernels in a large microwave-safe bowl. Make sure the bowl has enough room to stir the ingredients later.

Step 2

Add the unsalted butter to the bowl with the corn.

Step 3

Microwave the corn and butter on high for 3-4 minutes, stopping halfway to stir. The corn should be hot and fully thawed, and the butter should be melted.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the honey mustard mixture over the hot corn and stir thoroughly to coat the kernels evenly.

Step 6

Microwave the corn for an additional 1 minute to heat the sauce and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Stir the corn one final time and taste to adjust seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if necessary.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
