Bacon and Corn O'Brien

Experience the flavors of Ireland with this delectable side dish, where corn is delicately cooked with crispy bacon and vibrant bell peppers to create a savory symphony of tastes.

Ingredients

2	bacon, cut into ½ inch pieces
¼	cup minced white onion
2	tablespoons green bell pepper, chopped
2	cups whole kernel corn, drained
1	tablespoon chopped pimento peppers
	salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

• 1. Begin by placing the bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat until the bacon is evenly browned, which should take about 10 minutes. Once done, drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, ensuring to leave the flavorful grease in the skillet.
  2. Next, stir in the minced white onion and the chopped green bell pepper into the skillet. Allow the mixture to cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
  3. Add the drained whole kernel corn, the chopped pimento peppers, and the reserved bacon back into the skillet. Cook and stir the ingredients together until they are heated through, which usually takes 3 to 5 minutes. Remember to season the dish with salt and pepper before elegantly serving.
