Grilled corn on the cob with basil, chili and lime
Ingredients
6 corn on the cob
Topping
2 tsp (10 mL) finely chopped basil
1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil
2 tsp (10 mL) fresh lime juice
1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt
1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
1/4 tsp (1 mL) chili powder
Preparation
1. Remove a few outer husks from the corn cob. Gently pull back the remaining husks and remove the silk. Recover the corn with the husk and soak for 15 minutes.
2. Preheat the BBQ to medium heat and place corn on the grill. Cook for about 25 minutes turning every 5 minutes. The husks will get charred but that is okay.
3. Meanwhile, mix all the topping ingredients in a small bowl.
4. When the corn is done, peel back the husk and brush on the topping and serve.
