- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
Peel the husks and remove the silk from all 4 corns on the cob. Rinse thoroughly under cold water.
In a large pot, bring 6 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the corn to the boiling water and cook for 10 minutes or until the kernels are tender. Use tongs to check for tenderness.

Once melted, stir in 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoons of paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoons of black pepper. Mix well to combine and remove from heat.
Drain the corn using a colander and place the cobs on a serving plate.
Brush the flavored butter generously over each cob, ensuring all sides are coated.
