Slow-Cooked Cajun Corn image

My husband loves corn on the cob, and I love this slow cooker recipe because I don't have to stand at a hot stove. We like a little spice, so the Cajun seasoning works well for us, but any spice blend works. -Audra Rorick, Scott City, Kansas

Categories     Appetizer     Side Dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 ears of corn (husked)
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
4 tbsp mayonnaise (i used vegan mayo)
⅓ cup sour cream or Mexican crema
1 ½ tsp cajun spice
1 ½ tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp cilantro chopped
½ cup feta or cotija (crumbled)
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp chipotle or chili powder (optional)

Steps:

  • Oil and spices. In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, half of the cajun spice, half of the paprika spice, garlic and onion powder, salt, pepper to taste.
  • Place each cob on a piece of foil. Brush each corn generously with the mixture. Wrap in foil. It is fine if you have extra oil-spices mixture left, you can brush the corn later, right before brushing with the mayo sauce.
  • Transfer the corn to the oven and bake for 30 minutes at 425 F. If you like the corn to be softer, remove it from the oven after 30 minutes, brush it with more oil-spice mixture and bake another 20-25 minutes.
  • While cajun corn on the cob is baking, prepare the mayo sauce. In a medium bowl, mix mayo, sour cream, leftover cajun and paprika, lime juice (or squeeze it later directly on the corn as needed), salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Take the corn out from the oven, let cool slightly and brush with leftover oil mixture (optional) and finally mayo mix all over the corn. (If you want to get the corn slightly charred without using a grill, a grill pan would be a great option here. Transfer the baked corn directly to a lightly greased grill pan and let all the sides grilled until the desired result, don't overcook it though!).
  • Top with crumbled feta or cotija cheese, chopped cilantro, cajun spice. Serve warm!

Cajun Potatoes and Corn on the Cob Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by jannycerv

Number Of Ingredients 8

Potatoes
16 ounces red potatoes
2-3 tablespoons crab and shrimp boil
2-3 tablespoons creole seasoning
Corn
4 cobbettes of corn
2 tablespoons crab and shrimp boil*
2 tablespoons creole seasoning*

Steps:

  • Potatoes Clean potatoes and boil with crab and shrimp and creole seasonings until tender. Drain and cool. Can serve cold. Very good - spicy! Does not need butter or oleo Corn Boil corn per package directions with crab and shrimp and creole. * Can use more or less seasoning

Tips:

  • Choose fresh corn on the cob: Look for ears with bright green husks and tightly packed kernels. Avoid ears with brown or yellow husks, as these are likely to be old and dry.
  • Prepare the corn properly: Remove the husks and silks from the corn, then rinse the ears under cold water. If you are using frozen corn on the cob, thaw it according to the package directions.
  • Season the corn liberally: Cajun-style corn on the cob is all about the seasoning. Be generous with the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or oregano, to taste.
  • Cook the corn over high heat: This will help to caramelize the sugars in the corn and give it a delicious smoky flavor. If you are grilling the corn, cook it over direct heat for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally. If you are boiling the corn, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the corn. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the corn is tender.
  • Serve the corn immediately: Cajun-style corn on the cob is best served hot off the grill or out of the boiling water. You can garnish the corn with chopped parsley, cilantro, or green onions, if desired.
