I usually roast quite a few ears of corn when they are on sale and freeze what I don't use at that time. This is a wonderful side dish to go with a fish fry, barbecue or almost any summer meal. It's a constant at my house.—Marilyn Rodriguez, Fairbanks, Alaska

Roasted Corn and Garlic Rice for Two Recipe
  • Prep: 40 min. Cook: 20 min.
  • Yield: 2 Servings
40 20 60

Ingredients

  • 2 ears sweet corn in husks
  • 1 to 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • Dash pepper

Directions

  • Carefully peel back husks from corn to within 1-in. of bottom; remove silk. Rewrap corn in husks. Place garlic cloves on a piece of heavy-duty foil; drizzle with 1/4 teaspoon oil. Fold foil around garlic and seal tightly.
  • Place corn and garlic on a baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 30 minutes. Remove corn; bake garlic 5-10 minutes longer or until softened. Remove garlic from foil and place in a small bowl; cool. Mash with a fork. When corn is cool enough to handle, remove corn from cobs with a sharp knife.
  • In a small saucepan, heat remaining oil over medium heat. Add rice; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Gradually add the broth, bay leaf, salt, pepper and roasted garlic. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-13 minutes or until heated through. Stir in roasted corn; cover and cook 7-10 minutes longer or until rice is tender. Discard bay leaf. Yield: 2 servings.
