Spicy & Creamy Cajun Corn on the Cob

Instructions

  1. Boil or Grill Corn:
    • Boiling: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add corn and cook 5–7 minutes until tender.
    • Grilling: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until lightly charred (~10 minutes).
  2. Make Creamy Cajun Sauce:
    In a small bowl, mix melted butter, mayonnaise, Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Coat the Corn:
    Brush or spread the sauce generously over the cooked corn.
  4. Add Toppings:
    Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley if desired. Serve with lime wedges for an extra zing.

💡 Tips:

  • Adjust the Cajun seasoning to your preferred spice level.
  • For an extra smoky flavor, char the corn directly on a grill or under a broiler.
  • You can also wrap corn in foil with the butter mixture and bake at 200°C (400°F) for 15–20 minutes.

If you want, I can also give you a super quick air-fryer version that’s crispy, spicy, and creamy in under 15 minutes. It’s amazing for a fast snack or side!
