Ingredients
Vegetables
- 4 ears of corn, cut into round pieces about an inch thick
Spices & Seasonings
- 1 tablespoon Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Oils & Fats
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (plus extra for spraying)
- ¼ cup melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F to ensure it’s hot enough to roast the corn rounds nicely.
- Prepare Corn: In a large bowl, place the corn rounds and spray them lightly with olive oil to help the seasoning stick and to promote roasting.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the corn pieces evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer for even cooking.
- Mix Seasonings: In a small bowl, combine Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning, paprika, garlic salt, and black pepper. Stir well until blended thoroughly.
- Season Corn: Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the corn rounds and spray lightly once more with olive oil to enhance browning and flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the corn for 20 to 22 minutes, allowing it to roast and develop a slightly crispy, flavorful exterior.
- Serve: Remove the corn from the oven and serve immediately, drizzling the melted butter over the top or alongside your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, flip the corn halfway through baking.
- Adjust the seasoning quantities to taste if you prefer it milder or spicier.
- Use freshly melted butter for best flavor and texture.
- Perfect as a side dish to grilled meats or seafood.
- Can be made gluten-free by ensuring your Cajun seasoning is gluten-free.
