Lemon-Garlic Glazed Corn on the Cob

From EatingWell:  July/August 2010

 

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 ears corn, husked
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Preparation

1. Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Add corn, water, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Cover and cook, gently shaking the pan occasionally to turn the cobs, for 5 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking, turning the cobs occasionally, until all but a few tablespoons of liquid has evaporated, 2 to 4 minutes more. Serve the corn drizzled with the lemon-garlic pan sauce.
