Step 1
Stand each corn ear upright on a cutting board. Slice lengthwise down one side, cutting through kernels and into cob, then rotate and repeat until you have 4–6 thick ribs per ear.
Step 2
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high until it foams, about 60 seconds.
Step 3
Add corn ribs in a single layer. Cook without stirring 3–4 minutes until edges char and kernels brown.
Step 4
Flip ribs carefully. Add minced garlic, stir briefly, then cook another 3 minutes until the second side chars.
Step 5
Toss ribs with Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a plate and serve hot.
