Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons salted butter, softened at room temperature
- 1 large clove garlic, minced, grated, or pressed (about 1 teaspoon total)
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 ears fresh corn, husks removed
- For baking: aluminum foil and rimmed baking sheet
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, thyme, or basil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the butter mixture evenly on each ear of corn. Wrap each individual ear of corn in aluminum foil.
- Place the foil-wrapped corn on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Carefully remove the foil from each ear of corn. Garnish with fresh herbs and season with additional salt and pepper, to taste. Serve.
Notes
- There are so many different ways to flavor the butter that you spread on your corn. Use this recipe as a base, but feel free to experiment with your favorite combinations. Other nice options include Old Bay seasoning, lemon zest or lime zest, granulated sugar or brown sugar, smoked paprika or regular sweet paprika, chili powder, cayenne, onion powder, grated Parmesan cheese, and fresh or dried herbs like parsley, thyme, rosemary, chives, and basil.
- To easily remove the strings of cornsilk from each ear of corn, just rub the corn gently with a gripper pad (like you use to open tight jar lids).
- Don't wrap the corn too tightly or with too many layers of foil. It's good to have a little bit of air circulating inside the foil wrapper. Too many layers of foil will require a longer cooking time.
- Bake the corn on a rimmed baking sheet instead of directly on the oven rack. This helps to catch any melted butter that might drip out of the foil, and also makes it easy to pull all of the corn in and out of the oven.
- For even cooking, don't forget to flip the corn over halfway through the baking time.
