Step 1

Over medium heat, melt butter in a 12-inch skillet. Then add onion and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, until translucent. Add garlic and cook for one more minute, stirring.

Step 2

Add sweet corn, green chiles, and salt. Stir and cook for one minute. (Yes, just one minute as the corn will finish cooking in the next step and we don't want to release too much moisture from it.)

Step 3

Then add sour cream, lime juice, and cilantro, and stir to fully combine. Add layer of pepperjack cheese and cover. Turn heat down to low and cook for 3 to 4 minutes just to melt the cheese. (You could also broil it here, uncovered, if you'd like.)

Step 4

Remove from heat and uncover, let sit for a few minutes. Then serve with chips or eat as a side dish!
