Asian Grilled Corn Recipes

ASIAN GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Whisk together all sauce ingredients.
• Place corn on the grill and cook over medium-high heat 6-10 minutes, turning throughout until cooked on all sides and corn begins to char.
• Remove corn from grill, brush with sauce. Serve immediately. Drizzle with extra sriracha sauce if you like it really spicy!

GRILLED CORN WITH SWEET-SAVORY ASIAN GLAZE

Steps:

• Stir first 4 ingredients in small bowl until sugar dissolves. Melt butter with 2 tablespoons oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Add fish sauce mixture and green onions and simmer until sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
• Do ahead: Butter sauce can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Preheat barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush corn with oil. Grill corn until tender and charred in spots, about 13 minutes. Brush corn generously with butter sauce and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
• *Fish sauce is a versatile ingredient. Try it (1) mixed with garlic and cilantro as a marinade for grilled chicken; (2) in barbecue sauce for ribs; (3) in a salad of slivered green apples and chopped cilantro; and (4) in a compound butter with cayenne and shallots for grilled fish. It is available in the Asian foods section of many supermarkets and at Asian markets.

HOISIN-GLAZED CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin, butter, honey, soy, ginger, sesame oil and garlic.
• Grill the corn, turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until it starts to char, about 12 minutes. Baste with the hoisin mixture and continue to grill until the glaze gets sticky, another 3 to 4 minutes. Baste again before removing from the grill.
• Sprinkle each ear with sesame seeds and chives.
