Grilled Corn With Cilantro Salt Recipes

GRILLED CORN WITH CILANTRO LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Cream butter in a bowl until smooth; mix in cilantro, lime juice, and cayenne pepper until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors.
• Peel husks back from ears of corn starting at the top, leaving the husks attached at the bottom of the ears. Remove all the corn silk and close husks over the ears again. Cover corn ears with cold water in a large bowl until husks are thoroughly soaked, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place the corn in husks onto the hot grate and grill covered until husks are charred and the corn kernels are tender, 20 to 25 minutes, turning often. Strip off husks and serve corn with cilantro lime butter.

CILANTRO GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, mix garlic, cilantro and salt.
• Cut two 12-inch square pieces of heavy-duty foil. Spray each ear of corn generously with cooking spray. Spread garlic mixture over each ear of corn. Wrap each ear of corn in foil piece, sealing edges. Allow space for circulation and expansion.
• Cover and grill corn over medium heat 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CILANTRO PESTO

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high. Once hot, lay the corn across the grill. Rotate corn every 3 minutes until all sides are evenly golden and slightly charred, about 15 minutes.
• Put the corn on a platter. While corn is still hot brush the corn with cilantro pesto and then sprinkle with the Cotija cheese. Serve.
• In a food processor add the cilantro, canola oil, pumpkin seeds, Cotija cheese, and garlic. Puree until smooth but not liquid. Taste for seasoning. Cooks Note: Usually you do not need salt because of the salt in the roasted pumpkin seeds and the cheese. Set aside.
• Yield: 3/4 cup
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the pumpkin seeds, canola oil, chili powder and salt, to taste, in a small bowl. Mix well to combine.
• Spread the pumpkin seeds out evenly on a cookie sheet or baking pan. Bake, stirring the seeds every few minutes until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Set aside until cool.
• Yield: 1/2 cup

GRILLED CORN WITH CILANTRO SALT

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium. Mix together cilantro and salt in a small bowl.
• Pull back each corn husk, leaving it attached to the cob, and remove the silk. For each ear, cut off a piece of husk, and tie it around the remaining husk to form a bundle.
• Grill corn, turning often, until slightly charred and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve cobs with butter, and sprinkle with cilantro salt.

GRILLED CORN WITH CILANTRO BUTTER

Steps:

• Puree cilantro, butter, lime zest and juice, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in food processor.
• Heat grill to medium-high. Brush corn with some of the cilantro butter, and season with salt. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until nicely charred and bright in color, 10 to 12 minutes. Brush corn again with remaining cilantro butter. Sprinkle generously with cheese. Serve warm.

CORN SALAD WITH TOMATOES, BASIL AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Microwave the corn in their husks on high for 3 minutes. Shuck the corn - the silks will come off easily. (If you want to boil or steam the corn on the stovetop, you can shuck the corn first then cook just until brighter in color, 2 to 3 minutes.) Cut the kernels off the cobs, transfer them to a large bowl and add the tomatoes.
• Finely grate the zest of the lime directly over the corn mixture, then squeeze the juice from the lime all over. Add the oil, a generous pinch of salt and the chile, if using. Mix well, then tear the herbs over the salad and gently fold them in. Season to taste with salt and serve, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
