                            BOUDREAUX'S MACQUE CHOUX


Ingredients
1 stick butter
4 cups fresh cut corn
1 can Rotel (hot) brand tomatoes
1 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup finely chopped bell pepper
2 cups heavy cream
1 pod garlic..chopped fine
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp Tobasco sauce
1 1/2 tsp salt (or less to taste)
green onions scallions chopped parsley to taste

 
Directions
On a medium heat in a heavy 4 quart sauce pan, melt butter. Add the corn and cook for 5 minutes,. Slowly add the Ro-tel tomatoes, onions and bell peppers. Turn heat up a little more and stir well. Add the garlic, seasonings(garlic pwdr,onion pwdr,Cajun seasoning), sugar, salt and Tabasco sauce. When corn seems to be cooked (approximately 25 minutes), add the heavy cream. Cook a little longer approximately 10 to 15 minutes, add the green onions and parsley and let set a few minutes before serving.

Boudreauxs  Note: Fresh frozen corn maybe substituted, small kernel works best; Rotel tomatoes are spicy but you could substitute with any whole tomatoes or diced tomatoes and add additional pepper spice or Tobasco.]

This is one of my go to sides at events...

Might have to give that a try. Thanks

Wait, I think I found something close in Emeril Lagasse's book "Louisiana Real and Rustic".

I love those spicy Rotel tomatoes and have used them in many things.  Thanks for the recipe  :)
