Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears of corn, shucked
For the orange chimichurri:
- 10 g fresh coriander, finely chopped
- ¼ red onion, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 red chilli, finely chopped
- ½ tbsp orange zest (approx. 1 orange)
- 2 tbsps freshly-squeezed orange juice (approx. 1 orange)
- 2 tbsps sherry vinegar
- 3 tbsps extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Heat oven grill to medium. Place a rack at the top of the oven. Grill the corn directly on the rack, turning once halfway through, until golden brown with a little bit of char, 20 to 25 minutes (or until tender).
- While the corn is roasting, combine the chimichurri ingredients in a small bowl. Season with sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste.
- Using a pastry brush (or spoon), generously slather the roasted corn with the orange chimichurri. Serve with any remaining chimichurri on the side.
