Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk and pat dry with a paper towel.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper to make cleanup easier.
Place the corn on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the ears with extra-virgin olive oil, ensuring each ear is evenly coated.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper evenly over the corn.
Roast the corn in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through the cooking time, until the corn is tender and slightly browned.
Remove the corn from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately as a delicious, Whole30-compliant side dish with your favorite protein or salad.
