Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ears Fresh corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Husk the corn, removing all the outer leaves and silks. Rinse each ear under cold water to ensure all silks are removed.
In a small mixing bowl, combine melted butter, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir until the spices are fully incorporated into the butter.
Place each ear of corn on the prepared baking sheet. Using a basting brush, generously coat each ear with the butter mixture, ensuring even coverage across all sides.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast the corn for about 25 minutes, turning the ears every 7-8 minutes to achieve an even golden brown color.
After 25 minutes, or once the corn is tender and nicely roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
Drizzle lemon juice over the roasted corn for an added burst of flavor. Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy!
