Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped
8 cloves garlic
Zest of 1 lemon
Pinch kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 sticks butter, softened
Oil, for oiling grill
6 ears corn, shucked and silks cleaned

Steps:

  • In a food processor, combine the basil, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Pulse until everything is thoroughly chopped and combined. Add the butter and pulse until thoroughly mixed. Scrape the butter mixture out of the food processor onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper and form into a log. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Preheat a grill or a grill pan for medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the corn, rotating it as it cooks, until lightly charred in places, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Remove the corn from the grill, smear each ear with a generous amount of the herb butter and serve.
