Ingredients

2 fresh sweet corn in the husk
1 tbsp butter soft
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tsp garlic powder
pinch of sea salt and black pepper

Instructions

Preheat the grill to 400°F and soak the corn in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
Combine the butter with the garlic powder in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Pull back the husk from the corn (keep it attached at the stem though; you're not removing it completely). Rub each corn with the butter mixture. Replace the husk and place on the preheated grill.
Grill the corn, turning often, for 20 minutes or until soft and charred.
Remove from the grill and top with some fresh chopped parsley.

Notes

The silk -- those hairy strands attached to the corn -- can be removed beforehand, if you prefer, but you don't have to. It's thought the silk helps steam the corn, keeping it juicy. I'm not sure I've ever noticed the difference. In any case, the silk will get charred during the grilling process, making it easy to remove.
