Best Everything Bagel Grilled Corn Recipes

Scallion Cream Cheese Corn on the Cob image

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch scallions (10 to 12), cleaned and trimmed
4 ears of corn, husks removed
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup cream cheese (one-quarter of an 8-ounce block), at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning (some have salt and some do not, so adjust the salt accordingly), plus more for serving

Steps:

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Reserve 2 or 3 of the scallions for serving.
Drizzle the corn and remaining scallions with the olive oil, season with a big pinch of salt and 5 to 6 turns of pepper and toss around so everything is coated. Place the scallions directly on the grill grates and cook, turning a few times, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
Grill the corn, turning every couple of minutes, until nice and charred, 10 to 12 minutes depending on the grill (just keep cooking until they are the level of charred you prefer; be careful, they will pop). Remove from the grill and keep warm.
Thinly slice the reserved scallions and set aside.
Combine the cream cheese, sour cream and lemon juice in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
When the grilled scallions are cool enough to handle, chop them finely and add them to the cream cheese mixture with the everything bagel seasoning. Stir to combine, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. (You will probably need to add salt if your everything seasoning does not have salt.)
Schmear the cream cheese mixture on the corn and serve topped with the sliced fresh scallions and additional everything seasoning.
Alternatively, this can be made into a dip: cut the corn off the cob, mix with the cream cheese mixture and fresh scallions, pour into a baking dish, top with any good melting cheese and bake until bubbly. Serve with pretzels or chips.

Categories main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
3 scallions, sliced
1 tablespoon butter, plus more as needed
4 thick slices seeded wheat or country white bread
Everything Bagel Seasoning, for sprinkling, recipe follows
2 ounces mozzarella, thinly shaved or sliced
4 slices tomato, cut into half-moons
4 thin slices red onion, cut into half-moons
1 tablespoon capers
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
3/4 teaspoon poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Mix together the cream cheese and scallions until well combined.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bread slices and toast until lightly browned on one side; remove to a cutting board, toasted-side up (the toasted sides will become the insides of your sandwich). Spread all four slices with scallion cream cheese, then sprinkle with Everything Bagel Seasoning. Top two of the slices with mozzarella, sliced tomato and red onion. Press the capers into the cream cheese on the other two slices. Form sandwiches.
Add a bit more butter to the skillet if it seems dry. Place the sandwiches in the skillet, cover with a lid and cook until toasted on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and cook, covered, until toasted on the reverse side and the mozzarella is melted, about another 2 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, cut in half and serve.
Mix together the sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion and salt.
