Easy Parmesan Grilled Corn
Grilled corn on the cob is a quick, easy, and fresh side dish that is the perfect complement to so many Summer favorites — grilled chicken, pork chops, smoked ribs, and fried catfish.
Ingredients
- 8 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 - 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium high heat, around 400 degrees.
- In a bowl, combine the softened butter, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and parsley.
- Generously spread the butter mixture onto each ear of corn. Wrap them individually in heavy duty aluminum foil, being sure to seal them tightly and twist the ends.
- Place the corn on the hot grill and cook for 16 - 20 minutes, turning several times, until the ear of corn feels soft when squeezed with tongs.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately with more butter or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Notes
To roast corn on the cob in the oven: Follow the same recipe instructions (slathering the corn with butter and wrapping in aluminum foil), then pace the corn on a baking sheet in a 400-degree oven. Turn the corn with tongs every few minutes until it is tender, about 15 - 20 minutes.
