Oven-Baked Spiced Corn

Welcome back!

Today, we have a quick recipe to enhance something very simple: corn! This method of preparing corn is inspired by the viral dish, "corn ribs", but it's really not anything too complicated, consisting primarily of just a seasoning rub over the corn. The interesting component to this dish is how the corn sort of curls when cooked because of being quartered the way it is.

Oven-Baked Spiced Corn

Ingredients:

2 ears corn
1 tablespoon melted butter/oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch of cayenne (optional)

Directions:

Cut the corn into quarters to create four long strips. This will be easier if you cut the corn in half first, giving you eight shorter strips.
Mix the melted butter/oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne together in a bowl.
Rub this mixture on the corn.
Bake in the oven at 425°F for 10-12 minutes. For an oven like ours with an air-fry setting, you could air-fry it at 400°F for about 10 minutes.

Honestly, there's just something fun about eating corn like this, with the shape resembling those of a rib. And even though many other preparations of this dish call for quartering the whole ear of corn (instead of half), where do you ever find ribs that are that long? We believe that halving the ears actually makes everything easier, even if the full-length corn curves nicer.
