Ingredients
- 4 ears of corn, husked
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Preheat your grill or oven (set to broil) to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, parsley, thyme, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined. This is your herb butter.
Brush each ear of corn with olive oil, making sure they are lightly coated all over.
Place the corn on the grill grates or under the broiler. Rotate occasionally to ensure even cooking. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the kernels are tender and lightly charred.
Remove the roasted corn from the heat and immediately brush each ear generously with the prepared herb butter.
