Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 strips bacon
  • 2 (11 oz) cans whole kernel sweet corn, drained
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Dash of cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • Parmesan cheese, to taste

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a cast iron or ovenproof skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set on paper towels to absorb excess grease. Drain off all but 1 teaspoon of the grease remaining in the pan. We want to use the bacon grease to grease the pan and add more bacon flavor to the dip. Crumble the bacon.
  • Combine the corn, jalapeno, cream cheese, mozzarella, salt, cayenne, half of the bacon, and half of the basil. Scoop into the skillet and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the remaining bacon and basil, and parmesan cheese to taste. Serve immediately.
