GRILLED CORN WITH ANCHO CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wrap the head of garlic with aluminum foil and roast for 40 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Squeeze the cloves of garlic from their papery skins into a small glass bowl. Add the butter and ancho powder, mixing well to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Place a piece of plastic wrap on a work surface, spoon the butter into the middle and roll into a cylinder. Refrigerate until set, at least 30 minutes. (The butter can be made ahead and will keep for up to a week.)
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat.
• Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until browned in spots and the kernels are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Brush with the ancho chile butter and serve.

CORN AND GREEN CHILE CHOWDER

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart multi-cooker to the saute setting and add the butter. Add the bacon, onions and oregano and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions start to become translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the green chiles, corn and garlic and cook for an additional minute. Add 3 cups of the chicken stock.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the remaining 1/3 cup chicken stock. Add to the multi-cooker and stir well. Cover and position the vent to the sealing setting. Set the multi-cooker to pressure-cook on high for 5 minutes. When the time is up, carefully quick release the steam (it takes about 3 minutes), then remove the lid.
• Mix in the heavy cream. Stir in the cheeses until they have melted completely. Check the seasoning; add salt and pepper as needed. Ladle into bowls and serve immediately garnished with the green onions.

SMOKY CORN AND CHILI CHOWDER

Steps:

• Place the yogurt in a strainer lined with cheesecloth. Set aside to drain for 3 hours. This will become yogurt cheese. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Whisk in the cornmeal. Cook until creamy, about 25 minutes. Season with the salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet until smoking. Add 2 1/2 cups of the corn. Dry roast, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Brush the inside of 4 ramekins -- 3 inches in diameter, 4 inches tall -- with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cover the bottom of each with a thick layer of the cornmeal mixture. Add a layer of yellow bell peppers, a layer of the poblano peppers, a layer of dry roasted corn and a layer of yogurt cheese. Top with the remaining cornmeal. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Cook the onion in the remaining olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved dry-roasted corn, the remaining fresh corn, peppers, marjoram and broth. Simmer for 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and puree in a blender until smooth. Strain and ladle into 4 warmed soup bowls. Serve each with a timbale.

ROASTED CORN AND CHICKEN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Put the corn on a rimmed baking sheet; broil, turning, until lightly charred on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes. (Alternatively, char the corn directly over a gas burner or on a grill over medium-high heat.) Transfer to a cutting board; let cool slightly, then cut off the kernels and transfer to a bowl. Working over the bowl, run the back of a chef's knife down the cobs to extract the juices; discard the cobs.
• Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add all but 2 tablespoons of the scallions, the celery, sweet potato, thyme, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the cornmeal; cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, 1 minute. Add the corn, its juices and 5 cups water. Increase the heat to high and bring to a simmer. Adjust the heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is tender and the soup has thickened slightly, 15 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium low and stir in the chicken and milk. Cook until the chicken is warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes (do not boil). Season with salt and black pepper. Top each serving with the reserved scallions and serve with the dinner rolls.

GRILLED CORN WITH HONEY-ANCHO CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in small skillet over medium-low heat. Add chile powder and cumin; stir 10 seconds. Transfer to medium bowl; stir in honey and cool.
• Add oregano, coarse salt, granulated garlic, onion powder, and 6 tablespoons butter to butter mixture. Mix until smooth. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; chill. Bring to room temperature.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill corn until charred in spots, turning often, about 13 minutes. Transfer corn to platter. Serve with honey-ancho butter.

ROASTED GREEN CHILE AND CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Over medium heat, heat a large soup pot. Add olive oil and saute onions in turmeric. Cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add the roasted corn, roasted chiles, potatoes, salt, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and 1 cup chicken broth to the pot. Simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add half-and-half. Simmer another 5 minutes.
• Add the remainder of the broth and simmer 20 minutes.

BOBBY FLAY'S LOBSTER AND GREEN CHILE CHOWDER WITH ROASTED CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Remove the claws from the lobsters. Carefully crack the claws, and remove the meat in one piece if you can. Remove the tail meat and chop it into 1-inch chunks. Set the lobster aside in the refrigerator. Coarsely chop the shells and reserve.
• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Raise the heat to high, add the wine, lobster shells, and corncobs, and cook until the wine has completely reduced. Add the 4 cups lobster stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain the broth into a bowl, discard the shells and corncobs, and return the broth to the pot.
• Add 1 cup of the roasted corn kernels and cook until the corn is just tender, 15 minutes. Transfer the soup to a blender, in batches, and puree until smooth. Strain into a clean saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the remaining 1 cup roasted corn kernels, and the chiles, and cook for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the heavy cream in a medium saucepan, bring it to a simmer over medium heat, and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Add the reduced cream to the chowder and simmer for 5 minutes. If the chowder appears too thick, add additional stock or water to thin it slightly.
• Add the reserved chopped lobster meat, season with salt and pepper, and stir in the chopped cilantro. Ladle the chowder into bowls and top each one with a few tablespoons of the relish, a lobster claw, and a few fresh cilantro leaves.
• Combine the corn, poblano, onion, lime juice, honey, and oil in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let the relish sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

ROASTED CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat; stir in corn and tarragon and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Place skillet with corn in the preheated oven; roast, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned but not dry, about 20 minutes.
• Place bacon in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat; cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon slices; drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat.
• Heat reserved bacon fat in Dutch oven over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue to cook and stir until the onion is very tender and dark brown, about 15 minutes.
• Pour chicken stock over caramelized onions; stir, scraping the bottom of the pot to dissolve any browned bits, and bring to a boil. Stir corn, potatoes, parsley, garlic, celery, and paprika into onion mixture. Crumble bacon, reserving about 1/4 cup for garnish, and stir bacon into soup. Reduce heat to low; simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
