Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Stand corn upright on a cutting board. Slice down along the cob, turning as you go, to create long flat planks.

  2. Step 2

    Pat the corn planks dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

  3. Step 3

    Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it foams, about 1 minute.

  4. Step 4

    Arrange corn ribs in a single layer. Cook 3–4 minutes without moving until the bottom is golden brown.

  5. Step 5

    Flip and cook the other side 3–4 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork and edges are caramelized.

  6. Step 6

    Transfer to a plate. Season with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. Serve immediately.
