Instructions Cajun Corn on the Cob :

Prepare the Corn:
- Start by peeling back the husks of the corn, leaving them attached at the base. Remove the silk (the fine threads) from the corn.
- Pull the husks back over the corn, covering it completely. Soak the corn in water for about 15-20 minutes to prevent burning on the grill. This step will also help steam the corn.
Create the Cajun Butter:
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful Cajun butter mixture.
Preheat the Grill:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure it’s clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the Corn:
- Place the soaked corn on the preheated grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and slightly charred. The husks will also become browned and crispy.
Apply the Cajun Butter:
- Carefully remove the corn from the grill and peel back the husks.
- Generously brush the Cajun butter mixture over each ear of corn, ensuring even coverage.
Serve and Garnish:
- Transfer the Cajun Corn on the Cob to a serving platter.
- Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the corn for a burst of color and freshness.
Enjoy:
- Serve your Cajun Corn on the Cob hot and watch as your guests savor the spicy, smoky, and buttery goodness!
