GRILLED CREAM CORN
Yield: 6 servings
Cook Time:15 minutes
Calories per serving: 266
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 ears corn, husked
- 2 T. butter
- 2 T. flour
- 1-1/4 c. milk
- 3 T. cream cheese
- 1 T. sugar
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- a couple pinches cayenne pepper, optional
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat a grill to medium-high. Arrange the corn on the grate and grill, turning occasionally, until the kernels are golden brown and softened 8 to 10 minutes. Remove corn from the grill. Once cool enough to handle, remove the corn kernels from the cobs; discard the cobs. You should have about 5 cups of kernels.
Lower the grill temperature to medium. It is very important to get the heat lowered, so the butter won’t burn. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over the grate. Add the butter to melt, then whisk in the flour until combined and foaming, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk and cream cheese and cook, whisking constantly, until smooth and thick, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in sugar. Stir in the corn kernels; season with salt, black pepper, and the cayenne, if using, and cook until heated through about 1 minute.
