Broiler Grilled Corn Recipes

BROILER-GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Crush chipotle in mortar and pestle, or grind in a spice grinder. Add chipotle, chili powder, cumin, cayenne, garlic powder, sugar and salt to yogurt and stir really well. Taste for seasoning; each ear only gets a thin coat, so if you want it hot, add more cayenne.
• Strip corn of husks and silk. Arrange on broiler tray in a single layer. Brush all sides with butter and broil 5 minutes. Turn over and broil another 5 minutes. Brush all sides with butter again. Continue cooking and turning often until corn is golden and a few kernels are charred.
• Transfer corn to a platter. Smear each ear with about 2 tbsp of yogurt mixture, spreading evenly. Sprinkle all over with parmesan and squeeze lime wedges over. Eat hot.

GRILLED PICNIC CORN

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Alternatively preheat the broiler to low, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Brush the corn with melted butter or olive oil. Grill the corn until hot and lightly charred all over, 7 to 10 minutes, depending on the temperature of the grill. Alternatively, broil the corn ears 6-inches from the heat source until charred spots appear, about 10 minutes. Flip the corn and broil for an additional 10 minutes.
• While the corn is charred, mix the cilantro, garlic, chile powder, salt, mayonnaise, and lime juice.
• Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the corn, and sprinkle with Romano cheese. If desired, return the corn to the grill or broiler for just a few minutes. Serve warm with lime wedges.
