  • 2 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. Place each ear of corn on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely.
  4. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over each ear of corn.
  5. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered corn, making sure to coat each ear evenly.
  6. Season the corn with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Wrap each ear of corn tightly in the aluminum foil.
  8. Place the foil-wrapped corn on the preheated grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and cooked through.
  9. Carefully unwrap the corn from the foil and transfer to a serving platter.
  10. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.

For Garlic Parmesan Grilled Corn, it’s best to use minced or crushed garlic rather than chopped garlic. Crushed or minced garlic blends more evenly with the butter mixture, infusing the corn with a more robust garlic flavor. Whether you’re hosting a special grilling day, or relaxing with the family picnic, enjoy your delicious Garlic Parmesan Grilled Corn as a flavorful side dish at your next barbecue or gathering!
