Make the sauce while the pasta cooks. Stir in chopped grilled chicken to make it a heartier main dish, or serve it as a side with barbecued brisket. Ingredients:

1 cup fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears) |
1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chiles |
1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced |
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh garlic |
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
3/4 cup whipping cream |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions; drain.
2. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; add corn, and sauté 6 minutes or until tender. Stir in chiles, jalapeño pepper, and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Stir in Parmesan cheese and next 3 ingredients. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until thoroughly heated. Stir in pasta. Sprinkle evenly with cilantro, and serve immediately.
