Cajun Grilled Corn Recipes

CAJUN-GRILLED CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Prepare grill. Combine first 8 ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
• Pull husks back from corn (do not remove), and scrub silks. Brush butter over corn; sprinkle with spice mixture. Place corn on grill rack; grill 12 minutes or until done, turning occasionally.

CAJUN CORN ON THE COB (BOILED, BAKED, OR ON THE GRILL)

Steps:

• Oil and spices. In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, half of the cajun spice, half of the paprika spice, garlic and onion powder, salt, pepper to taste.
• Place each cob on a piece of foil. Brush each corn generously with the mixture. Wrap in foil. It is fine if you have extra oil-spices mixture left, you can brush the corn later, right before brushing with the mayo sauce.
• Transfer the corn to the oven and bake for 30 minutes at 425 F. If you like the corn to be softer, remove it from the oven after 30 minutes, brush it with more oil-spice mixture and bake another 20-25 minutes.
• While cajun corn on the cob is baking, prepare the mayo sauce. In a medium bowl, mix mayo, sour cream, leftover cajun and paprika, lime juice (or squeeze it later directly on the corn as needed), salt, and pepper to taste.
• Take the corn out from the oven, let cool slightly and brush with leftover oil mixture (optional) and finally mayo mix all over the corn. (If you want to get the corn slightly charred without using a grill, a grill pan would be a great option here. Transfer the baked corn directly to a lightly greased grill pan and let all the sides grilled until the desired result, don't overcook it though!).
• Top with crumbled feta or cotija cheese, chopped cilantro, cajun spice. Serve warm!

SMOKEY GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CAJUN BUTTER

Steps:

• Carefully remove the "silks" from the cornhusks (keeping the husks intact).
• Place the corn cobs with the silks removed in a large pot of COLD water (the corn should be completely covered with the cold water).
• Soak the corn for 1 hour.
• In the meantime prepare the cajun butter, by mixing all of the cajun butter ingredients together, adjusting ingredients to taste).
• Remove the corn from the water and shake off any excess moisture.
• Pull husks back gently.
• Smear the butter (with your hands) over all sides of the corn.
• Pull the husks back over to cover corn.
• Place the corn on a baking tray large enough to hold the cobs.
• Preheat only ONE SIDE of the barbecue to 275 degrees or to low temperature.
• Leave the other side of the grill off.
• Place the corn on the tray onto the side of the grill that has NO heat.
• Close lid, and cook the corn for about 30 minutes (the corn kernels will turn a bright yellow colour, and the butter will be fully absorbed into the flesh of the corn).
• Remove from the grill and serve immediately.
• DELICIOUS!
