Grilled Corn With Cheese And Chile Recipes

GRILLED CORN WITH CHEESE, LIME AND CHILE (ELOTES)

Steps:

• Heat your grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, zest of 1 lime, chile powder, salt and pepper.
• Slather hot corn with mayonnaise mixture and sprinkle with cheese and cilantro. Cut limes into wedges and serve alongside corn.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHEESE AND CHILE

Steps:

• Pull the husks up to cover the ears of corn, and place the corn in a large bowl or pot. Cover with cold water, and place a large plate or other weight on top of the corn so that it remains submerged. Allow the corn to soak for at least 1 hour or as long as 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, combine the sour cream and milk in a small bowl, and set it aside.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high. Adjust the grilling rack so that it sits about 4 inches away from the fire.
• Drain the corn but do not remove the husks. Lay the corn on the grill and cook, turning it frequently, until it is crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the corn from the grill and allow it to cool slightly. Then pull the husks back to form a handle, and brush the ears evenly with the melted butter. Squeeze the lime halves evenly over the ears of corn. Return the corn to the grill and cook, turning it occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the corn is slightly browned in places. Remove the corn from the heat and brush the ears with some of the sour cream mixture. Divide the cheese evenly among the ears of corn, coating them on all sides. Sprinkle with the chili powder and kosher salt, and serve immediately.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CHILI-LIME BUTTER AND COTIJA CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Grill the corn in their husks until the husks start to blacken, about 3 minutes per side.
• Mix together the butter, chili powder, cayenne pepper, lime juice and some salt and black pepper in a bowl until incorporated.
• Peel back the corn husks, leaving on to use as handles while eating. Rub the chili-lime butter all over the corn. Garnish with the cotija cheese.

GRILLED CHEESE WITH CORN

Steps:

• Cut the kernels off 1 ear of corn. Grate 1 small zucchini, then squeeze dry in a kitchen towel. Toss the corn, zucchini, 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes, 2 sliced scallions, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add 2 cups grated Colby jack cheese; toss. Divide among 4 slices white bread and top each with another slice of bread; press to adhere. Lightly butter the outsides of the sandwiches. Grill over medium-low heat, rotating as needed, until well marked and the cheese melts, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

MEXICAN GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, ancho chile powder, and smoked paprika in a bowl; whisk until smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil corn in the salted water for 5 minutes. Drain the corn.
• Place ears of corn on hot grill and cook until the kernels begin to brown and caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the corn and continue to cook, turning ears after 1 to 2 minutes, until they are browned with slightly charred, caramelized spots.
• Generously brush corn with melted butter and ancho-lime mayonnaise until kernels are coated. Sprinkle ears with Cotija cheese and salt. Garnish with slices of lime.

PARMESAN ROASTED CORN ON THE COB

• Spread with mayonnaise.
• Sprinkle with chili powder and parmesan cheese.

• When it's roasted, spread with butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• (You can pretty much adapt this entire recipe to your own taste specifications. I don't measure anything on this one).

CHILI CHEESE CORN

• Transfer corn to a serving platter and serve with lime wedges, salt, and chile powder.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking. For each corn cob, tear a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely.
• In a bowl, combine the butter, chile, garlic (if using), salt and pepper. Mix well and taste. Adjust the seasonings; add drops of hot sauce if the butter is not spicy enough. Set aside.
• Shuck the corn. Use your hands to rub butter mixture thoroughly onto each cob, reserving about 1/4 of the mixture for basting. Wrap each buttered cob in aluminum foil.
• When ready to cook, place cobs on the grill (or, if the fire is low, in the coals) and cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until steamed and cooked through.
• Unwrap and place on the grill. Use remaining butter to baste the corn as it grills, turning it until lightly charred and cooked through. Serve immediately with lime wedges, if using.

CHARCOAL-GRILLED CORN WITH CREAM, CHEESE, AND CHILE

Steps:

• 1. Preliminaries. About an hour before serving, place the ears of corn in a deep bowl, cover with cold water and weight with a plate to keep them submerged. Light your charcoal fire and let it burn until the bed of coals is medium-hot; adjust the grill 4 inches above the fire.
• 2. Grilling the corn. Lay the corn on the grill and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, turning frequently, until the outer leaves are blackened. Remove, let cool several minutes, then remove the husks and silk. About 10 minutes before serving brush the corn with melted butter, return to the grill and turn frequently until nicely browned. Serve right away, passing the cream, cheese and powdered chile for your guests to use to their own liking.
