Grilled Corn with Garlic Butter and Cheese

Ingredients

- 4 ears of corn, husked
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4 cup grated hard cheese (such as Parmesan or Pecorino Romano)
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 2 tablespoons chopped scallions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Prepare the Grill
Start by preheating your charcoal grill. Arrange the charcoal for medium heat grilling.

2. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce
In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, and fish sauce. Mix well to ensure the garlic is evenly distributed.

3. Prepare the Corn
Brush each ear of husked corn evenly with the garlic butter sauce using a pastry brush, ensuring every kernel is well coated.

4. Grill the Corn
Place the seasoned corn directly over the heated charcoal on the grill. Grill for approximately 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking. You’re looking for a slight char on the corn, enhancing the flavors.

5. Garnish the Corn
Once grilled, remove the corn from the grill and place it on a serving platter. While the corn is still hot, sprinkle the grated hard cheese generously over each ear. Allow the heat from the corn to melt the cheese slightly.

6. Add Finishing Touches
Top with chopped chives, chopped scallions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.

7. Serve and Enjoy
Serve immediately as a delightful snack, and enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors!
