How to Make Baked Lime Green Onion Corn

Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
Cut the corn kernels off the cob. (Alternatively, you can thinly slice the corn on the cob into evenly sized rounds.)
Place the corn kernels (or sliced corn) in a small, oven-safe dish.
Pour the chicken broth or water over the corn.
Drizzle with melted butter and lime juice.
Sprinkle with lime zest, green onions, and salt.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the corn is tender and slightly caramelized. If using sliced corn on the cob, it may take slightly longer, up to 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
