Elevate your next barbecue with this irresistible Grilled Corn with Soy Honey Glaze, a perfect blend of smoky, sweet, and savory flavors. This recipe transforms fresh ears of corn into a flavor-packed side dish, featuring a mouthwatering glaze made with soy sauce, honey, melted butter, and a hint of garlic and lime juice. For an added kick, sprinkle chili flakes before grilling, and finish with a vibrant garnish of chopped cilantro. The corn is grilled to smoky, golden perfection, with every turn infused by glaze basting for a caramelized finish. Ready in just 25 minutes, this dish is ideal for summer cookouts or family gatherings. Serve hot off the grill for maximum flavor and let the combination of sweet honey, umami-rich soy, and zesty lime steal the show.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or prepare the coals for grilling.
Remove the husks and silk from the corn. Rinse and pat dry.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, melted butter, minced garlic, lime juice, chili flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper to create the glaze.
Brush each ear of corn lightly with the soy honey glaze, reserving some for basting later.
Place the corn directly on the grill grates. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to ensure even charring and cooking.
During grilling, baste the corn occasionally with the remaining glaze for a more intense flavor.
Remove the corn from the grill once it is evenly charred and cooked through.
Transfer the corn to a serving platter and sprinkle chopped cilantro on top as a garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet and savory flavors of the grilled corn!
