Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Step 3
Add the diced andouille sausage to the skillet. Sauté for 5-6 minutes or until browned. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage to a plate, leaving the fat in the skillet.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the fresh corn kernels, diced red and green bell peppers, and chopped jalapeño. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring well. Remove from heat.
Step 6
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, beaten eggs, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 7
Add the cooked sausage and sautéed vegetable mixture to the bowl with the cream mixture. Stir well to combine.
Step 8
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it evenly.
Step 9
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Sprinkle this breadcrumb topping evenly over the casserole.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the casserole is bubbling and golden brown on top.
Step 11
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy!
