Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe corn on the cob. Look for ears with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks.
- Soak the corn in cold water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help keep the kernels moist and prevent them from burning.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using a charcoal grill, let the coals burn until they're white-hot.
- Brush the corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, chili powder, or cumin.
- Grill the corn for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally. The kernels should be tender and slightly charred.
- Let the corn cool slightly before serving. You can then remove the kernels from the cob and add them to a salad, salsa, or other dish.
Conclusion:
Grilled corn on the cob is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. With its sweet, smoky flavor, grilled corn is a perfect addition to any barbecue or cookout. The honey-lime dressing adds a tangy, refreshing flavor that complements the corn perfectly. This is a classic side dish that can be dressed up or down, making it perfect for any occasion.
