Cheesy Bacon Jalapeno Corn Dip - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 slices bacon
2 (11 ounce) cans whole sweet corn, drained
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash cayenne pepper
1/4 cup fresh basil leaf, chopped
parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a cast iron skillet or ovenproof skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from heat and set on paper towels to absorb excess grease. Drain off all but 1 teaspoons of bacon grease remaining in skillet to grease the pan and add more bacon flavor to the dip. Crumble bacon.

Sprinkle with the remaining bacon and basil, and parmesan cheese to taste. Serve immediately.
