Absolutely! Grilled corn on the cob is simple, smoky, and irresistible 🌽🔥. Here’s a foolproof way:
Ingredients
- Fresh corn on the cob (husks on or off)
- Olive oil or butter
- Salt (and optional pepper, paprika, or chili powder)
Optional: lime wedges, Parmesan, or fresh herbs for finishing.
Instructions
Option 1: Grilling with Husks On
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Pull back husks slightly and remove silk. Fold husks back over the corn.
- Soak corn in water for 10–15 minutes (optional, keeps husks from burning).
- Grill 15–20 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Pull back husks, brush with butter or oil, and season with salt.
Option 2: Grilling Husk-Off
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Brush corn with olive oil or melted butter.
- Grill 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until kernels are lightly charred.
- Season with salt and enjoy!
Tips:
- For extra flavor: sprinkle smoked paprika, cayenne, or Parmesan on top.
- Squeeze fresh lime over just before serving—it’s a game-changer.
- Don’t overcook! You want some char but still juicy kernels.
If you want, I can also give a “garlic butter + herb” version that tastes like a fancy street food version. It’s addictive. Do you want me to do that?
