Microwave Corn on the Cob

Microwave corn on the cob quickly and easily without crowding your grill or waiting for a whole pot of water to boil. This no-nonsense recipe for corn on the cob lets your microwave and a moist paper towel steam each ear of corn to perfection. I freeze the corn on the cob in plastic bags, and remove a single ear of frozen corn in the cold winter months to have the sweet taste of summer corn throughout the year!

Cook in the microwave until kernels are tender but still crisp when poked with a knife, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 4

Carefully remove and discard paper towel before serving.
