Grilled Corn With Jalapeño Feta Butter Recipes

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH JALAPENO BUTTER

Steps:

• Clean grill grates and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Place the jalapeno on the grill and cover. Grill, turning occasionally, until the jalapeno is blackened and charred, about 10 minutes. Remove from the grill and place in a paper bag, folding tightly to seal. Let stand for 5 minutes. Peel and discard the skins then cut the jalapeno in half lengthwise. Remove the stem and seeds then finely chop the jalapeno. In a small bowl combine the jalapeno, butter, lime zest, honey, and salt.
• Meanwhile, place the corn on the grill. Cover and grill until lightly charred, about 10 minutes. Remove corn to a serving tray and brush with the jalapeno butter.

GRILLED CORN WITH JALAPEñO-FETA BUTTER

Steps:

• To prepare the jalapeño-feta butter, in a small bowl, mash together the butter, jalapeño, feta, cilantro, garlic, lime or lemon juice, salt and coriander.
• Divide the butter equally onto six pieces of parchment paper large enough to wrap them snugly (6-inch squares should do it), form into logs, and wrap well, twisting the ends like candy wrappers. Chill for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days before using, or freeze for up to 3 months.
• Light the grill or heat the broiler, arranging the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. Brush corn lightly with oil. Grill until charred on all sides, 3 to 6 minutes total.
• Transfer corn to plates, and serve each ear with a log of jalapeño-feta butter for rubbing onto the ear.

GRILLED CORN WITH ROASTED JALAPENO BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or turn on a gas burner.
• Place the jalapenos directly on the grill or burner and cook, turning, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and let steam for a few minutes. Use a paper towel to rub the skins off the peppers, then remove the stems and seeds and finely dice.
• Mix the diced jalapenos, butter, lime juice, honey and garlic powder in a food processor or by hand until well blended. Season with salt and pepper. Spread a generous amount of jalapeno butter on each ear of corn, then wrap the corn in foil.
• Place the corn on the grill or in a grill pan and cook on one side for 5 to 10 minutes. Flip and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until the kernels are bright yellow and you start to see grill marks.
