Ingredients

• 4 pieces fresh corn on the cob (husked)
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons fresh chives (chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 4 cups water

Directions

Step 1

Fill a large pot with 4 cups of water and bring it to a boil over high heat.

Step 2

Carefully place the husked corn on the cob into the boiling water and reduce heat to medium. Cover with a lid and cook for 7-8 minutes until the corn kernels are tender but not mushy.

Step 3

While the corn cooks, add unsalted butter to a small skillet over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.

Step 4

Add the chopped parsley, thyme, and chives to the skillet with the butter and garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring to combine. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Once the corn is cooked, use tongs to carefully remove it from the water and let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Brush the herbed butter mixture generously over each ear of corn, ensuring the herbs and garlic evenly coat the kernels.

Step 7

Sprinkle the corn with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Serve immediately as a tasty side dish for any meal.
