Grilled Corn With Hot Paprika Oil And Manchego Cheese (Maíz Rustido)
- 1 lime
- 3 ears of corn, husks and silk removed
- 1 teaspoon hot pimenton (smoked paprika)
- 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 ounce aged Manchego cheese
- Maldon sea salt
- Heat a grill to high. (As an alternative, you could use a rack set over a gas burner.)
- Trim the top and bottom off the lime. Remove and reserve the zest. Slice between the membranes to release the lime segments. Reserve in a large bowl. Grill the corn, turning to char evenly, until dark brown all over and tender, about 5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cobs. Transfer to the bowl containing the lime segments and toss until well mixed. Divide among serving dishes.
- Mix the pimenton and oil in a small bowl and drizzle all over the corn. Shave the cheese directly over the corn mixture with a microplane, then sprinkle the lime zest on top. Sprinkle with Maldon salt and serve immediately.
