AI-written · not yet kitchen-tested
Precooked corn only needs heating and browning on the grate. Add chive butter afterward so the butter and herbs do not burn.

Ingredients
- 4 precooked corn on the cob
- 60 g (1/4 cup) butter
- 0.5 bunch chives
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp sweet paprika
Method
- Soften butter and combine with finely sliced chives, lime juice, salt and paprika. Chill again until serving.
- Pat the precooked corn dry. Preheat a gas grill to about 350 °F (180 °C) with direct and indirect zones.
- Grill directly for about 12 to 18 minutes, turning every 3 minutes. Move darkening cobs indirectly to finish heating; they should be hot throughout with browned patches.
- Transfer to a clean platter and brush with chive butter only now. Let it melt briefly and warn diners that the cobs are hot.
Tip: Cooking times are untested estimates. Check earlier for thinner pieces or changing grill heat, and cook longer as needed.
