Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by placing a large skillet over medium heat. Allow it to warm up for about 2 minutes.
Pour in a splash of olive oil and let it warm for approximately 30 seconds.
Add the corn kernels to the skillet and spread them out in an even layer. Stir occasionally and cook for about 5-7 minutes.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat, stirring occasionally until completely liquefied.
Once the butter is melted, drizzle in the honey and stir gently for 1-2 minutes.
Carefully pour the honey butter sauce over the corn and stir gently to coat.
Sprinkle in salt and black pepper to taste, and swirl the corn to mix.
Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the corn to a serving dish. Garnish with parsley if desired.
