Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh tender herbs (such as cilantro, chives, and/or flat-leaf parsley)
1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Cayenne pepper
8 ears corn, shucked
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
