Charred Taco Corn Ribs
Tender, juicy corn ribs roasted until lightly charred and coated in bold taco seasoning, finished with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime. These fun, smoky bites are perfect as a side dish or crowd-pleasing appetizer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears fresh corn on the cob, husked and cut lengthwise into quarters
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges from 1 lime, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the corn ribs with olive oil, taco seasoning, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Arrange the corn ribs in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.
- Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and charred around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top just before serving.

Notes
- Microwave corn for 2 minutes before cutting to make slicing easier.
- Use a sharp, sturdy knife and steady pressure when cutting corn lengthwise.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to allow proper charring.
- For extra char, broil for the last 2 minutes while watching closely.
