Ingredients
- 4 ears Fresh corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Remove the husks and silks from the ears of corn, and then rinse the corn under cool water to clean any remaining threads.
Step 3
Prepare 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each large enough to fully wrap an ear of corn.
Step 4
Place each ear of corn on its own sheet of foil.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 6
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the seasoned butter evenly over each ear of corn, covering all sides.
Step 7
Tightly wrap each ear of corn in its foil sheet, ensuring it is sealed to lock in the moisture.
Step 8
Place the wrapped corn directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet, spaced evenly.
Step 9
Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, turning the wrapped corn halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 10
Remove the corn from the oven and carefully open the foil packets (they will be hot, so use caution).
Step 11
Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley if desired, for a fresh, vibrant touch.
