Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 oz. dried spaghetti or fettuccine
  • 3 to 4 ears sweet corn
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 3/4 tsp. dried thyme
  • 3/4 cup half and half
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes

Instruction

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta 1 minute less than the directions on the box.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Cut the corn off the cob, you will need 2 1/2 to 3 cups of corn. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter. Once melted, add corn, garlic, kosher salt and dried thyme. Saute for about 10 minutes, until softened and slightly golden.
  • Remove half of the corn mixture (you can eyeball this) to a food processor or blender. Add the half and half and blend until almost smooth. It won't get completely smooth.
  • Add half and half mixture back to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes. Toss with the cooked pasta and serve.
