Ingredients
- 4 ears Corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a grill to medium heat or an oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Shuck the corn by removing the husks and silk, then rinse the ears to remove any remaining strands.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each large enough to wrap one ear of corn completely.
Step 5
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the butter mixture evenly over each ear of corn.
Step 6
Place each ear of corn in the center of a foil sheet. Tightly wrap the foil around the corn, ensuring it is fully sealed.
Step 7
Place the foil packets directly on the grill grates or on a baking sheet in the oven.
Step 8
Grill or bake for 15-20 minutes, turning the packets occasionally to ensure even cooking. The corn should be tender when done.
Step 9
Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for steam) and serve warm. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
