Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and melted butter, and add the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Brush each ear of baby corn with the prepared seasoning mix, ensuring an even coating.
Place the baby corn on the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for 8-12 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure they cook evenly on all sides.
Once the baby corn is tender and slightly charred, remove them from the grill.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the hot baby corn evenly so the cheese melts slightly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added freshness and flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer.
