Tips for Making Chip-Crusted Grilled Corn:

  • Select the Right Corn: Choose fresh, plump ears of corn with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks. Avoid ears with dry or damaged husks.
  • Prepare the Corn: Shuck the corn and remove the silks. Cut the kernels off the cob, or leave them whole if desired.
  • Make the Chip Crust: Combine crushed tortilla chips, grated Parmesan cheese, melted butter, and seasonings in a bowl. The type of tortilla chips you use will affect the flavor of the crust, so choose your favorite flavor.
  • Coat the Corn: Brush the corn with melted butter or olive oil. Then, roll the corn in the chip crust mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs.
  • Grill the Corn: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender and the chip crust is golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve Immediately: Chip-crusted grilled corn is best served hot off the grill. You can add additional toppings such as sour cream, butter, or crumbled cotija cheese.
