Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fresh corn on the cob, husks removed
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 large piece Roasted red pepper, jarred or freshly roasted
- 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F).
Brush each ear of corn lightly with olive oil and season with salt and ground black pepper.
Place the corn directly on the grill grates and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to ensure even charring. Once the corn is tender and slightly charred, remove it from the grill and set aside.
To make the roasted red pepper mayonnaise, place the roasted red pepper, mayonnaise, minced garlic, paprika, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the roasted red pepper mayonnaise to a small bowl or serving dish.
Serve the grilled corn on a platter, either brushed with the roasted red pepper mayonnaise or with the mayonnaise on the side for dipping. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.
Enjoy your smoky, creamy Grilled Corn on the Cob with Roasted Red Pepper Mayonnaise!
