Corn And Leek Saute

Directions

1. 1
   Microwave corn 10 minutes, 2 ears at a time. Leave the corn in the husk and drape a damp paper towel over the top. I cut off the base of the corn husk if it's too long to fit in the microwave.
2. 2
   After removing the corn from the microwave run cold water over it to cool the corn enough to shuck it.
3. 3
   After husk has been removed stand it on end over a cutting board or bowl and using a downward sawing motion cut off the kernals. Then go back over the cob and remove all the tiny bits still remaining.
4. 4
   Rinse the leek and cut off dark green part, keeping white and light green part. Slice in thin slices (about 1/4 inch).
5. 5
   Melt butter over medium-high heat.
6. 6
   Add minced garlic and leeks.
7. 7
   Cover and reduce heat to medium.
8. 8
   Once the leeks are tender (about 5-7 minutes) add corn.
9. 9
   Salt and Pepper to taste.
10. 10
    Cook for an additional 2 minutes to reheat corn.
