Side Dishes
ADVERTS 1
We are going to my parent's block party this Saturday. We are supposed to bring a side dish to serve to all the neighbors. Every year we go, it's the same old stuff... Pasta salad, baked beans, potato salad, jello salad. I want some ideas on something different to take this year. Any ideas?

Roasted Corn w/ Sheep's Milk Cheese
6 ears of sweet yellow corn, unhusked
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 jalapeño, seeded, finely diced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 lime, cut into 4 wedges
1 cup finely grated Manchego (any sheep's milk cheese will suffice)
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives
2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest
Preparation:
-Preheat oven to 450°. Roast unhusked corn on a baking sheet, turning occasionally, until heated through and crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Let cool. Shuck corn and cut kernels from cobs. Discard cobs.
-Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add corn kernels and sauté until heated through and light-golden in spots, 3-5 minutes. Add butter; stir until melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-Transfer corn to a large wide bowl or deep platter; sprinkle jalapeño and crushed red pepper flakes over. Squeeze lime wedges over; sprinkle with cheese, chives, and lime zest.
I made this dish last week and it was phenomenal. Quick, easy and very flavorful. Sure to be a hit!
