Fire up your grill and elevate your summer side dishes with this Herb Grilled Corn recipe! Perfectly charred ears of fresh corn are basted with a luscious, homemade herb butter made from parsley, chives, garlic, and a hint of zesty lemon for a burst of fresh flavor in every bite. A quick soak in cold water keeps the husks from burning, while a light coat of olive oil ensures that the corn cooks evenly to tender perfection. Ready in just 25 minutes, this smoky, buttery delight is the ultimate addition to any barbecue, potluck, or weeknight dinner. Serve it hot off the grill for a crowd-pleasing, flavor-packed side dish that captures the essence of summer grilling.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Carefully peel back the husks of each ear of corn without removing them entirely, and remove the silk strands. Fold the husks back over the corn.
Soak the corn in a large bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to prevent the husks from burning on the grill. Remove and shake off excess water.
In a small bowl, mix together the butter, parsley, chives, garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Brush the ears of corn lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the corn on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the husks are slightly charred and the corn is tender.
Carefully peel back or remove the husks, and brush the hot corn generously with the herb butter.
Serve immediately and enjoy warm!
