Ingredients
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons unsalted ghee (or clarified butter)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Peel back the husks of the corn without removing them completely. Remove the silk from each ear of corn.
Step 3
Rinse each ear of corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk, then pat dry with paper towels.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine ghee, parsley, thyme, rosemary, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a smooth herbed butter.
Step 5
Brush the herbed butter generously over each ear of corn. Make sure to coat them evenly on all sides.
Step 6
Once coated, pull the husks back up to cover the corn completely, twisting the tops to secure.
Step 7
Place the prepared corn directly onto the oven rack or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the corn is tender.
Step 9
Carefully remove the corn from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 10
Serve the baked corn with any remaining herbed butter on the side for extra flavor.
