Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Shuck the corn by removing the husks and silks, then rinse under cool water to clean.
Pat the corn dry with a paper towel and place them on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Brush each ear of corn evenly with the seasoned olive oil mixture, ensuring full coverage.
Roast the corn in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are golden and tender.
Meanwhile, chop the fresh cilantro and juice the lime.
Once the corn is roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
While the corn is still warm, squeeze the lime juice over the ears and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
Slice the corn into smaller sections if desired and serve immediately as a delicious Paleo-friendly side dish.
