Grilled - CORN WITH SPICY CILANTRO BUTTER

Category: Corn

8 large ears of corn
1/4 lb salted butter, softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp finely chopped cilantro

Salt and black pepper to taste

Shuck corn and remove any silk and rinse thoroughly under cold running water and set aside. Into a food processor place butter, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Process until smooth. Transfer butter to a ceramic bowl and fold in cilantro and green onions. Cover and set aside.

When ready to cook, brush oil onto hot grill and cook corn, turning occasionally, 10 to 12 minutes. As corn cooks, brush it occasionally with cilantro butter. When ready to serve, brush once more with butter. Serve hot. Serves: 8
