Ingredients

  • 3 ears corn, husked and halved lengthwise (about 3 ears)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat corn ribs dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Toss corn with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Spread corn in a single layer on a sheet pan, cut-side down.

  4. 4

    Roast until cut sides are deeply browned, 18–20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Flip corn. Roast until kernels blister and char slightly, 4–5 minutes more.

  6. 6

    While corn finishes, melt butter with minced garlic in a small skillet over medium-low heat, ~90 seconds.

  7. 7

    Transfer hot corn to a bowl. Pour garlic butter over corn and toss well.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle Parmesan generously over corn ribs. Toss once more and serve immediately.
