Roasted Corn Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place corn husks directly on the oven rack and roast for 30 minutes or until corn is soft. Peel down the husks and use as a handle when eating.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt 1 stick of the butter in a large skillet and saute the red and green peppers and onions until tender. Remove from heat and add the rest of the butter.
• Refresh the frozen corn under cold running water and drain thoroughly. Mix pepper and mixture with corn, and place on a roasting tray place in the oven and roast until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper, and serve garnished with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut 5 squares of aluminum foil 1 1/2 times the size of the ears of corn; place each ear of corn in the center of a piece of foil.
• Stir mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, chili powder, ground black pepper, and fresh parsley together in a bowl until it forms a thick paste; rub about 2 tablespoons of the paste over each ear of corn. Wrap the aluminum foil around the corn and seal. Arrange corn on a baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, turn, and continue baking another 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Place the corn in a large pot with enough water to cover, and soak at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat grill for high heat. Remove silks from corn, but leave the husks.
• Place corn on the preheated grill. Cook, turning occasionally, 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and discard husks.
• Cut the corn kernels from the cob, and place in a medium bowl. Mix in the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion.
• In a blender or food processor, mix the cilantro, olive oil, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Blend until smooth, and stir into the corn salad.

Steps:

• Spray eight 12-in. x 10-in. pieces of foil with cooking spray. Place one ear of corn on each piece of foil; spritz corn evenly with butter-flavored spray. Fold foil over corn and seal tightly. , Grill, covered, over medium indirect heat or bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until corn is tender. Combine the butter, horseradish, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper; brush over corn. Sprinkle with paprika.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Slit husks on one side, and peel back from corn; remove corn silk. Fold husks back around corn; tuck in a few herb sprigs, a sprinkle of salt, and bits of butter. Tie with kitchen twine, and place in a baking pan. Roast until tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven; remove the husks, and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare a coal or gas grill so it's at high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly blackened in spots all over, 5 to 15 minutes. When corn is cool enough to handle, hold one ear upright in a large bowl and, using a sharp knife, cut off the kernels. Discard the cob, then repeat with the other ear. Let cool completely before adding to the finished guacamole.
• Meanwhile, in a large granite mortar and pestle or molcajete (see Tip), combine the onion, chile, cilantro and salt. Pound into a rough paste, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the paste to a large bowl.
• Add the flesh of the avocados and the lime juice. Crush the avocados into a chunky dip using the pestle or the back of a large spoon. Once corn kernels are completely cooled, add them and the Cotija to the large bowl, reserving a little of each for garnish. Fold together the guacamole, corn and cheese, and season to taste with more salt and lime juice. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro, Cotija and corn. Serve immediately with tortilla chips. (Try to eat in one sitting. Leftover guacamole stored in the fridge turns brown quickly.)
