Summer Favorite: Recipe for Spicy Baked Sweet Corn

Summer's favorite flavor takes a delicious turn with a new recipe for spicy baked sweet corn. This dish transforms the beloved seasonal corn into a flavorful experience, roasting it with butter, olive oil, and a blend of spices.

The result is corn that is slightly crispy on the outside while remaining juicy and tender within. It's presented as an ideal side dish for barbecues or as a satisfying snack.

To prepare this treat, you'll need four ears of sweet corn. The recipe calls for two tablespoons each of melted butter and olive oil, mixed with a teaspoon each of paprika, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and oregano, plus half a teaspoon of black pepper and salt. Optional chopped parsley can be used for garnish.

The corn should be cleaned, brushed with the spice mixture, and baked in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 30-35 minutes. It's recommended to turn the corn occasionally for even browning. Serve hot, sprinkled with parsley if desired.
