Best 6 Grilled Lobster With Sun Dried Chile Butter And Corn On The Cob Recipes

GRILLED LOBSTER WITH SUN-DRIED CHILE BUTTER AND CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Make the sun-dried chile butter: Place butter in a small saucepan and melt over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until butter turns light golden brown; stir in Aleppo pepper. Remove from heat; set aside.
• Prepare the lobster: Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Add lobsters, one at a time, and cook until bright red, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from water and halve lengthwise. Clean lobsters, removing claws and cracking. Transfer to a large bowl and add olive oil, lemons, and black pepper; toss to combine and set aside.
• Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
• Make the corn: In a small bowl, whisk together oil and 1 tablespoon water. Place corn in a large bowl and brush with oil mixture. Place corn on grill and cook, turning, until all sides are light golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
• When corn is almost finished cooking, place lobster on grill, cut-side down, until meat is lightly charred, about 1 minute. Turn lobster and brush tail meat with some of the chile butter. Place lobster claws on grill and cook, turning, until each side is charred. Add lemons to grill, cut-side down. Cook until tail meat turns opaque and begins to pull away from shell, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer corn, lobster, and grilled lemons to a large bowl. Drizzle with remaining chile butter and sprinkle with chives; toss to combine. Arrange corn and lobster on a serving platter; garnish with tomatoes, lime wedges, and cilantro.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH BBQ BUTTER

Steps:

• Perfectly Grilled Corn, recipe follows
• Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over high heat until almost smoking. Add the onion and cook until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the ancho powder, paprika, cumin and cayenne and cook for 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup of water and cook until the mixture becomes thickened and the water reduces. Let cool slightly.
• Place the butter in a food processor, add the spice mixture and Worcestershire sauce and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, scrape the mixture into a small bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Bring to room temperature before serving and spread the butter over the corn while hot.
• Heat the grill to medium.
• Pull the outer husks down the ear to the base. Strip away the silk from each ear of corn by hand. Fold husks back into place and tie the ends together with kitchen string. Place the ears of corn in a large bowl of cold water with 1 tablespoon of salt for 10 minutes.
• Remove corn from water and shake off excess. Place the corn on the grill, close the cover and grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, or until kernels are tender when pierced with a paring knife. Remove the husks and eat on the cob or remove the kernels.
• How to remove corn kernels from cob: To remove kernels from cobs of either raw or cooked corn, stand cob upright on its stem end in a large pan, holding tip with fingers. Cut down the sides of cob with sharp paring knife, releasing kernels without cutting into cob. Run dull edge of knife down the cob to release any remaining corn and liquid.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Soak the corn in a large container of water for 1 hour. Prepare the grill. Put the soaked cobs on the hot grill and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, turning frequently. The corn is done when it feels soft when you press on it.
• While the corn is grilling make the lime butter: In a small bowl add the butter, lime zest, chervil, and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix well and spread onto a large plate. Spread the queso fresco onto another plate.
• Take the corn off the grill and carefully peel back the husks (it will be hot). Remove the corn silk and tie the husks in a knot so you can hold on to it like a handle. Roll in the lime butter and then roll in the queso fresco; sprinkle with the Ancho Chile Rub. Place on a large platter and serve immediately.
• For the spice rub: Toast the ancho chile pieces over low heat in a dry skillet until fragrant, shaking the pan so they don't scorch. Put the chiles in spice grinder and pulse to a powder. Add the remaining ingredients and buzz again to combine.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking. For each corn cob, tear a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely.
• In a bowl, combine the butter, chile, garlic (if using), salt and pepper. Mix well and taste. Adjust the seasonings; add drops of hot sauce if the butter is not spicy enough. Set aside.
• Shuck the corn. Use your hands to rub butter mixture thoroughly onto each cob, reserving about 1/4 of the mixture for basting. Wrap each buttered cob in aluminum foil.
• When ready to cook, place cobs on the grill (or, if the fire is low, in the coals) and cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until steamed and cooked through.
• Unwrap and place on the grill. Use remaining butter to baste the corn as it grills, turning it until lightly charred and cooked through. Serve immediately with lime wedges, if using.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILI LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the butter in a small bowl, add the chili powder, lime peel, lime juice, jalapeño and salt and mix well.
• Shape the butter into any form you like, cover and place in the refrigerator until shortly before ready to serve, at which time allow butter to soften.
• Heat grill to medium-high.
• Place corn (in husk) on the grill, rotating the corn so you cook on all sides, for approximately 15 minutes total.
• Remove from grill and cool slightly (so you are able to peel the husk) and peel. Place corn back on grill over the same flame for about 4 minutes, once again rotating the corn for even grill marks.
• Serve the corn immediately with the chili lime butter.
• Cooking option: Place the corn (in the husk) on a plate and microwave for 5 minutes (21/2 minutes per side); when ready to grill, remove the husks and grill over a medium-high flame for about 2 minutes per side.

Pull back husks and serve corn with 1 teaspoon flavored butter.
