  • 16 ounces frozen corn kernels
  • 3 cups Water
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Instructions
  • Turn Instant Pot® to High Sauté and let heat for about 1 minute. Add the bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until onions become translucent, 2–3 minutes. Stir in potatoes, corn, water, thyme, and cayenne; season with salt and pepper.

Empty pot into a large serving bowl; taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
