3. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until slightly crisp, about 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer toa place.

4. Add the butter and shallots to the skillet; season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until soft, about 2 minutes.

6. Stir in wine until absorbed.

7. Add 1 teaspoon salt and corn kernels.
