Grilled corn is summer on a plate. Sweet, smoky, buttery, and kissed with char. Fifteen minutes. Grill optional (stovetop works too). The perfect side for burgers, BBQ, or just because.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You’ll never boil corn again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Serves 4.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
4 ears of corn, husked<\/li>\n\n\n\n
4 tbsp butter, melted<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd tsp salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bc tsp black pepper<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Optional toppings: chopped cilantro, chili powder, lime wedges, cotija cheese, or Parmesan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Preheat the Grill<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400-450\u00b0F).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Grill the Corn<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Place corn directly on the grill grates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes, until charred in spots and tender.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Make Garlic Butter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic, salt, and pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Butter & Serve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Remove corn from grill. Brush generously with garlic butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Add any optional toppings. Serve hot.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Stovetop Method:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Heat a dry cast-iron skillet over high heat. Cook corn, turning frequently, until charred on all sides, about 10-12 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Best fresh off the grill. Leftovers keep in fridge for 3 days. Reheat in dry skillet or microwave. Cut kernels off the cob for salads, salsas, or rice bowls. Great cold too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
