Roasted Corn on the Cob with Honey-Cayenne Butter
Yields: 6 servings
 
Ingredients
  • ½ cup salted butter, softened
  • ¼ cup finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
  • 6 ears corn with husks
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Garnish: fresh parsley, flaked salt
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, stir together butter, chopped parsley, honey, cayenne, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  2. Soak corn in water for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 400°.
  4. Remove corn from water, and pull husks down ears to base, leaving husks intact. Remove silks, and tie back husks with kitchen twine. Place cobs on a rimmed baking sheet, and sprinkle with remaining 2 teaspoons kosher salt and black pepper. Drizzle with oil.
  5. Bake, turning occasionally, until corn starts to brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve with honey-cayenne butter. Garnish with parsley and flaked salt, if desired.
