Roasted Corn and Garlic Rice for Two image

I usually roast quite a few ears of corn when they are on sale and freeze what I don't use at that time. This is a wonderful side dish to go with a fish fry, barbecue or almost any summer meal. It's a constant at my house.-Marilyn Rodriguez, Fairbanks, Alaska

I'm a big fan of roasted corn, so I knew I would love this recipe. I was not disappointed! The rice was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I used less chili powder next time, and it was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon from this recipe. It was still delicious! The corn and garlic added plenty of flavor to the rice. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for my taste. I had to roast the corn and tomatoes separately, and then cook the rice. It was worth it in the end, but I would only make this recipe again if I had plenty of time.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and salt, and it was much better. I will definitely be making this again, but I will add more seasonings next time.
