Blackened Cajun Corn

Even though this summer's corn harvest hasn't been as good as usual, there's still plenty of good fresh corn out there. Joe makes this side-dish if he is cooking meat blackened Cajun-style. If you aren't serving this with pan-fried blackened meat, use some butter or olive oil and cook the ingredients until brown.

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
• 1 medium finely-chopped onion
• 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
• Blackened pan drippings, or 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
• 2 teaspoons Cajun Spice Mix

Instructions
Warm the drippings, butter or olive oil.  Add the onion cook until brown and caramelized. Add the red pepper and corn and cook until tender. Add the spice mix and stir well before serving.
