Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ears Corn on the cob
- 1 Red bell pepper
- 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
Clean the ears of corn by removing the husks and silk strands. Brush them lightly with olive oil and set aside.
Roast the red bell pepper over a gas burner or under the broiler until the skin is charred and blistered on all sides. Place it in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it cool for 10 minutes.
Once the red pepper is cool, peel off the charred skin, remove the stem and seeds, and finely chop the flesh.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, roasted red pepper, minced garlic, honey, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Cover and set aside.
Place the corn on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, rotating occasionally, until the kernels are tender and have light char marks.
Remove the corn from the grill and immediately spread the red pepper butter over each ear while still hot.
Serve warm and enjoy!
