Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil

2 garlic cloves, chopped

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan

2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves

1/2 teaspoon salt

6 ears yellow corn, husked, halved crosswise

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until tender and fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat and cool. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese and stir the rest into the garlic mixture, along with the parsley and salt.
  2. Cook the corn in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the corn to a platter. Brush the cheese mixture over the hot corn and serve. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of cheese on top of the corn.

This was fantastic! We didn't even miss the butter. I'm going to keep using this recipe switching it up and using basil instead of parsley next time. I did add more garlic because we love it. <br />I paired the corn with a Balsamic Grilled Flank Steak and Giada's Romesco Pasta Salad. Perfect spring meal.
