Corn on the Cob with Shallot-Thyme Butter Recipe

Filed under: Recipes — Tags: , , , , — Anna @ 5:37 am

The savory butter is also good on potatoes, rice pasta or bread.

Serves 6.

INGREDIENTS

  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, room temperature
  • 2/3 cup chopped shallots (about 3 ounces)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried

  • 6 to 9 ears fresh corn, shucked
  • olive oil

    DIRECTIONS

    Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until brown, about 4 minutes. Cool. Combine remaining 6 tablespoons butter and thyme in small bowl. Add shallot mixture and blend well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Butter can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.)

    Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush corn with olive oil. Grill corn away from direct heat until just cooked and beginning to brown in a few places, turning frequently, about 10 minutes. Alternatively, omit brushing corn with olive oil and cook in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 6 minutes, drain. Serve corn with shallot-thyme butter.
