Ingredients

  • 3 cups fresh OR frozen corn thawed
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper diced
  • 2-3 Tbsp butter
  • garlic salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spritz liberally with cooking spray.
  • To remove corn from the cob peel back the husk and remove the silk. Hold corn on the pointed end and use a sharp knife to remove the kernels from the cob. You can do this with a bundt pan or on a cutting board. Place into a colander and rinse then pat dry with paper towels.
  • On the pan, toss together corn and bell peppers. Spread in a single layer on pan.
  • Drizzle with melted butter and season with garlic salt and black pepper to your taste.
  • Roast for 15-18 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through.
  • Continue to roast until the corn begins to caramelize. Serve immediately.

Notes

To lighten up this dish, you may use cooking spray in place of butter.
