• 4 ears fresh corn on the cob, husked
• 0 olive oil spray
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
• 4 pieces lime wedges (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Husk the corn and remove all the silk threads. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk.

Step 3

Pat the corn dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 4

Lightly spray each ear of corn with the olive oil spray, ensuring a thin, even coating.

Step 5

Sprinkle each ear evenly with salt and ground black pepper.

Step 6

Wrap each ear of corn individually in aluminum foil, making sure they are securely sealed to steam during roasting.

Step 7

Place the wrapped corn directly on the oven rack. Bake for 25 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time for even roasting.

Step 8

Carefully unwrap the corn from the foil, watching out for hot steam.

Step 9

Optional: Sprinkle chopped parsley over the corn for a fresh touch and serve with lime wedges for a zesty finish.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your low-fat perfectly roasted corn on the cob.
