Listen up Portland – it is officially summer!  While here in the Pacific Northwest this may not necessarily mean shorts and flip-flops just yet, fresh corn is popping up in stores.  One of my clients passed along this grilled corn recipe (thanks Rick!) – it was a huge hit at his BBQ last weekend.

Try it yourself and let me know what you think.

Sweet and Spicy Grilled Corn:

• 2 cloves of garlic minced
• 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 teaspoons chopped cilantro
• 2 teaspoons cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon agave nectar or honey
• 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• salt and pepper to taste
• 4 ears of corn, shucked and cleaned

In a small bowl whisk together all ingredients except corn.  Brush the sauce over each ear of corn then wrap each ear in aluminum foil (or if you want to get fancy – pull down the husks, pull off the silks, brush the corn with the sauce, wrap the husks back over the ears and tie the ends with a string or metal twist tie).

Cook on a very hot grill for thirty minutes turning occasionally.  Just before serving peel away the foil or husks, brush the corn again with any remaining sauce, serve and enjoy!
