Ingredients:

4 ears of corn, husked and cleaned
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped, for garnish
Lemon or lime wedges, for serving

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Corn:

Remove the husks and silk from the corn.

Rinse under cool water to clean.

2. Make the Cajun Butter:

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

Add olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper.

Stir well to combine and cook for about 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.

3. Cook the Corn:

Grilling Method:

Preheat your grill to medium heat.

Brush the corn with a portion of the Cajun butter mixture.

Place the corn on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly charred.

Boiling Method:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Add the corn and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender.

Drain and brush with the Cajun butter mixture.

Air Fryer Method:

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

Brush the corn with the Cajun butter mixture.

Place the corn in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until tender and slightly charred.

4. Serve:

After cooking, brush the corn with any remaining Cajun butter.

Garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro.

Serve with lemon or lime wedges on the side for an added zest.

Enjoy your flavorful Cajun-style corn on the cob!
