Ingredients
  • 6

    tablespoons salted butter (room temperature)

  • 2

    tablespoons za’atar

  • 1

    tablespoon ground sumac

  • 1

    teaspoon grated lemon zest

  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper

  • ½

    cup crumbled feta cheese

  • cup lightly packed fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

  • Aleppo pepper

In a large bowl, stir together 6 tablespoons salted butter (room temperature), 2 tablespoons za’atar, 1 tablespoon ground sumac, 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest and ¼ teaspoon each kosher salt and ground black pepper. Prepare, grill and husk the corn as directed. Add the husked ears a few at a time to the bowl with the butter mixture and turn to coat. Return the corn to the hot side of the grill and cook, uncovered and turning occasionally, until lightly charred on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes; move the ears to the cool side if flare-ups become too intense. Transfer to a platter, then sprinkle with ½ cup crumbled feta cheese, ⅓ cup lightly packed fresh flat-leaf parsley (chopped) and Aleppo pepper.
