Categories     grilled     side dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ears yellow corn, in the husk
Kosher salt, for serving
6 tbsp. salted butter, softened
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 tbsp. chopped chives
1/4 tsp. ground paprika
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat (about 450˚ to 500˚).
  • For the grilled corn: Pull off all of the layers of the green husk, except for the two layers closest to the kernels. Pull those two layers back without detaching them. Remove all of the thin threads of silk from around the kernels of the corn. Fold the reserved pieces of husk back over the corn kernels, leaving a couple of gaps of open space.
  • Place the corn on the grill over direct heat, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Rotate each ear with a ¼ turn, cover and continue to cook 5 more minutes. Repeat 1 to 2 more times to cook all sides of the corn, 15 to 20 minutes total. Corn will become bright yellow and caramelized in spots when cooked through. Remove from the heat.
  • For the garlic-chive butter: In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic, chives, paprika, and black pepper. Mash and stir with a fork to combine.
  • Remove the charred husks from the corn. Spread all over with garlic-chive butter, sprinkle with salt, and serve immediately.

FANTASTIC GRILLED CORN ON THE COB



Fantastic Grilled Corn on the Cob image

This is so delicious, and is just perfect for any barbecue that your are having. You can substitute Barbecue sauce for the cheese and butter for a different flavor. Another different flavor is substituting Sun-Dried tomato and Oregano Dressing for the cheese and parsley. You can remove the hot foil-wrapped corn from the barbecue and stack on a platter and let the guests select and, de-foil and butter, their ear of corn when they desire. This will help the corn to stay warm longer.
