Ingredients

2 tablespoons bacon grease or butter
1 medium onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (14 to 16-ounce) bag frozen sweet corn
1 (14.5-ounce) can petitie diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
Creole seasoning (optional)

Instructions

In a large skillet or dutch oven, melt the bacon grease or butter over medium heat. Add the oninon and peppers and cook until they are tender - about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, sitrring frequently, for 1 minute.
Add the corn, tomatoes, and heavy cream and stir to combine. Add the salt and reduce the heat to a low simmer. Cook, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes or until the corn is cooked through and most of the liquid had evaporated. Adjust seasoning to taste, adding Creole seasoning, if desired. Allow to rest about 5 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken before serving.
