Number Of Ingredients 7

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

Steps:

Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Mix butter, herbs, salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Set herb butter aside. Brush corn with oil and grill, turning often, until it is tender and charred in spots, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer corn to a large platter or bowl and spread with reserved herb butter, dividing evenly. MAKE-AHEAD: Herb butter can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before spreading over grilled ears of corn.
