Skillet Mexican Street Corn

Servings:  About 6

I just love taco night every now and then... and tonight is the night!  I wanted something other than Mexican rice to serve with our tacos; so I found a recipe for Mexican street corn online that I adapted to our taste.  Verdict?  Easy and yummy!  Another staple for Mexican cuisine dinners at our home! (If you have left-overs, this would be a great addition to taco or tortilla soup).
