Recipe type: Side
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 4 ears of sweet corn
  • ¼ cup butter or margarine
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ Tbsp finely chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Cook corn however you like:
  1. Microwave on high, about 2-3 minutes per ear, rotating position of ears from center to outside and turning them halfway through, or grill over high heat, turning frequently, about 10 minutes with the cover down. Corn can be grilled in the husk or without it. Corn in the husk will steam similarly to how it cooks in the microwave. Corn without the husk will get a nice char, but not be quite so juicy and crisp.
Cumin Cilantro Butter
  1. Mix butter or margarine and cumin, garlic powder and salt in a small bowl.
  2. Microwave on high 30 seconds to a minute until melted and hot.
  3. Add cilantro and let sit a few minutes before serving.
  4. Serve with a brush for coating corn.
