For an easy summer side dish, grill sweet corn brushed with a buttery mixture of herbs and Parmesan cheese in foil packets.
Ingredients
- 8 ears corn, husk and silk removed
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 1 ½ tablespoons macadamia nut oil
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon crushed rosemary
- 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 8 sheets aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Soak husked corn in cold water for 1 to 3 hours.
Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Drain corn and pat dry.
Step 3
Stir melted butter and oil together in a bowl. Stir in garlic, rosemary, sage, basil, thyme, salt, and pepper, then stir in Parmesan.
Step 4
Place each ear in the center of a sheet of foil. Spread each ear with butter mixture, then tightly wrap in foil. Gently puncture the foil a few times to allow excess steam to escape while grilling.
Step 5
Cook on the preheated grill, turning frequently, until kernels are tender when pierced with a knife, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the grill and check for doneness; if not done, cook for 5 more minutes.
