Pinterest recipe testing: Oven roasted frozen corn

(Still) Working through all of my Pinterest recipe pins.

Why on earth did I put this on my 101 List?

Anyway, I needed a side dish for a steak dinner and thought I’d give an easy oven roasted corn recipe a try.

In the interest of full disclosure – I hated this recipe. I’ll tell you why later.

The original recipe is here. I’m going to skip writing up the recipe and just give you a how-to instead.

Pour frozen corn on a baking sheet.

 Drizzle with olive oil.

Add fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt. Roast under the broiler for 5-10 minutes.

That’s all there is to it.

Now – I hated this. I didn’t think the corn had much flavor and it wasn’t crisp-tender. Honestly, it is just as easy to oven or grill roast fresh corn-in-the-cob. It’s even easier to cook crisp-tender corn-on-the-cob in the microwave!

And that’s why I won’t be making this again.

HOWEVER, the corn was nice as a side dish for our grilled steaks. Topped with those delicious caramelized onions that I made earlier (check out the how-to here).
