Preparation
Step 1
Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with the olive oil in a 10 inch straight sided sauté pan or dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the scallions and 1/2 tsp salt and cook, stirring occasionally until the scallions are soft and lightly browned about 3 minutes.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the corn ginger garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon until the corn is just tender 3 to 4 minutes. (It will begin to intensify in color, glisten, and become somewhat shrunken in size, and the bottom of the pan may be slightly brown.)
Remove the pan from the heat, add all but 1/2 tablespoon of the cilantro, a good squeeze of lime and a few grinds of pepper. Stir let sit for 2 minutes, and stir again scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Season to taste with more salt pepper or lime. Serve warm sprinkled with the remaining cilantro.
