Grilled Corn with Roasted Anaheim Peppers in Foil
Ingredients:
4 Anaheim peppers
4 ears of corn, shucked
1/2 stick of sweet butter, softened
salt and fresh cracked peppercorns
heavy duty aluminum foil
Preparation:
Roast the peppers on your grill until sufficiently blackened and
place them into a zip-lock style bag and seal it shut for about
10 minutes. Remove the peppers to a clean working area and remove
the outer skin. Then cut down the length of one side and open it
up. Remove the stem, seeds and any ribs from inside and repeat
the procedure with the remaining peppers. Dice the peppers and
divide into 4 piles.
Cut two pieces of foil big enough to wrap around the corn and
stack them on top of each other. Place a buttered piece of corn
in the center and top with one of the piles of diced peppers.
Spread them over the corn and season the whole thing. Wrap
tightly and repeat.
When you ready to grill them, just place them on a medium heated
grill and cook for about 20 minutes, turning frequently. When
they are done, remove them and serve at once. The corn will have
a wonderful flavor.
Notes:
If I am having steak with this dish, I like to dump the cooked
peppers on top of my steak. You can also cut the corn from the
cob and blend with the chopped peppers and add some halved cherry
tomatoes and a squirt of lime juice for a wonderful corn salsa
for grilled chicken breast.

Chef Jean Denham's Easy Grilled Corn with Chili Oil
It doesn't get any easier than this. Chef Jean mentioned that she
is a fan of cooking her corn straight on the grill, no husks and
no foil. I tried this simple recipe that very night and we were
very pleased with it.
Ingredients:
4 ears of fresh corn, shucked
chili oil (see note)
Preparation:
Heat your grill to medium. Brush your corn with a bit of chili
oil and cook straight on the grill until lightly browned. Serve
at once. (I cooked mine for about 7 minutes and we thought they
were just right.)
Note: There are many kinds of chili oil on the market.

people to know WHY I look this way: I've traveled a long way and
some of the roads weren't paved.
