Serves:
4 people
Cooking Time:
18 minutes
Ingredients
- For the Grilled Corn
- 6 Corn
- For the Lemon Dill Butter
- 4 Tablespoon ( 1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened at room temp
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper or to taste
- 1 Tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Firstly, make a lemon-dill butter.
- Cream 4 Tablespoon butter with a fork in a medium bowl.
- Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of pepper, and 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice and mix until smooth. The lemon juice will seem like it isn’t blending but keep mixing for a couple of minutes and it will happen.
- Stir in fresh chopped dill until well incorporated. Keep the prepared butter at room temp until ready to serve corn.
- Preheat grill to med/high. Leave the corn whole or break corn into halves or thirds if serving a large crowd.
- Wrap each ear of corn with a generous sheet of heavy-duty foil making sure all sides are covered. If using regular kitchen-standard foil. double wrap the corn so it doesn’t scorch.
- Grill foil-wrapped corn with the lid closed over medium/ high heat, or baked in the preheated oven, rotating the corn every 2-3 minutes to keep from scorching. Grill for 15-20 minutes.
- Once the corn is finished grilling, remove foil and brush generously with lemon dill butter while warm.
