Savory Parmesan cheese and sweet corn team up in this easy corn on the cob recipe that's good for every season. Wrapping the corn in foil keeps in the flavors of smoked paprika, garlic powder and thyme. Pair with roast chicken, steak or pork or serve as part of a vegetarian meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 large ears corn, shucked

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut 4 squares of foil larger than the ears of corn and place an ear in the center of each.

  2. Combine oil, smoked paprika, thyme, pepper and garlic powder in a small bowl; stir in Parmesan. Rub 1 generous tablespoon of the mixture all over each ear of corn.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
