Ingredients

• 4 ears Fresh corn on the cob
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 375°F to 400°F (190°C to 200°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to make a flavored butter mixture.

Step 3

Peel back the husks of each ear of corn without fully removing them, and remove the silk threads. Fold the husks back into place, covering the kernels.

Step 4

Soak the corn (with husks on) in a large bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to prevent charring during grilling. Pat dry after soaking.

Step 5

Place the corn on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes to evenly char all sides. The husks will darken and kernels will become tender.

Step 6

Remove the corn from the grill and carefully peel back the husks (use gloves or tongs if hot), leaving them attached for presentation if desired.

Step 7

Brush the flavored butter generously over the grilled corn, ensuring each ear is well coated.

Step 8

Sprinkle the grilled corn with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese (if using) for added flavor.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a tasty side dish or snack!
