Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 ears corn with husks
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper

Steps:

  • Carefully pull back cornhusks, remove the silk and fold the husks back over the cobs. Soak the corn in a large bowl of water for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat grill to low heat (300°F). Combine butter, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Remove the corn from the water and pat dry with a clean towel. Pull the husks back and brush the kernels with the butter mixture, then cover again with the husks. Grill the corn, turning a few times, until tender and slightly charred, 15 to 20 minutes. To serve, pull back the husks and tie them together with kitchen twine.

SPICY CORN ON THE COB WITH MISO BUTTER AND CHIVES



Spicy Corn on the Cob With Miso Butter and Chives image

Corn slathered in miso butter is special enough, so you're within your rights to ignore any other ingredients in this recipe. But for lovers of spice, the Japanese spice blend shichimi togarashi is worth seeking out. In English, it translates to "seven-flavor chile pepper," though not all of those seven flavors are chile: There's also roasted orange peel, sesame seeds, ground ginger and seaweed in the mix. Add it gradually, so as not to overpower the subtle flavor of the miso butter (and because everyone likes a different amount of spice). If you can't find shichimi togarashi, substitute crushed red-pepper flakes.

  • Slather hot corn with miso butter. Sprinkle with chives and shichimi togarashi, and serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing.

SPICY GRILLED CORN ON THE COB



Spicy Grilled Corn on the Cob image

Delicious, different and healthy way to enjoy corn on the cob. I prepare mine under the broiler, but you could easily grill this outdoors on the BBQ if you please. Got this recipe from my mom, who says she got it from Cooking Light.

4 ears corn on the cob, cleaned and trimmed

2 tablespoons light sour cream
1/2 lime, cut into four wedges
