- Oven/Broiler Version
- Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with cooking spray. Line corn ribs onto prepared baking sheet, cut-side down, about 1/2 inch apart. Set broiler to high heat and broil corn ribs for 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly charred and blistered. Turn corn ribs over and broil for another minute. Remove from heat and toss with garlic-herb butter. Serve.
