Yield: 6 Servings
Ingredients
- Sun-Dried Tomato Butter
- 1 4 oz. Stick Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1/3 cup Oil-Packed Sun-Dried Tomatoes finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Tomato Paste
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Oregano coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Basil coarsely chopped
- 2 Cloves Garlic peeled and minced
- 1 tablespoon Kosher Salt
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground Black Pepper
- Corn
- 6 Ears Sweet Corn
- Water for soaking
Instructions
- Place softened butter in a food processor or a mixer. Pulse a few times to ensure the butter is smooth and creamy.
- Add finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, coarsely chopped oregano, chopped basil, minced garlic, kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to the butter. Mix until everything is well combined and smooth.
- Set butter aside.
- Pull back the husks from each ear of corn, removing all the silk, but don’t fully remove the husks.
- Place corn into a deep bowl of water. Let soak for 30 minutes to help prevent burning on the grill.
- After soaking, remove the corn from the water and blot it with a paper towel.
- Rub prepared sun-dried tomato butter generously over each ear of corn.
- Pull the husks back into their original position to cover the corn. Use kitchen twine to tie the husks at the top, keeping the butter sealed inside.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Place prepared corn on the hot grill and cook, turning every 4 - 5 minutes, for about 20 minutes or until the corn is tender and has grill marks.
- Continue turning to ensure even cooking and to avoid burning.
- Remove corn from the grill and serve immediately, garnished with any remaining sun-dried tomato butter if desired.
