Ingredients

  • 1/2 stick salted butter softened
  • 1/3 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic coarsely minced
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 4 ears corn
  • 2 tablespoons shaved Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C).
  • Blend the butter, basil, garlic, honey and cayenne pepper in a food processor.
  • Place the corns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Brush the butter generously on the corns and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the shaved Parmesan cheese on top of the corn and bake for another 5 minutes until the cheese melted and slightly browned. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Notes

You may grill the corns on a grill. Top the Parmesan cheese on top of the corn and cover the grill. Let the cheese melts before serving.
