Instructions

  1. Prepare the Grill:
    • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.

    • In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, and chili flakes. Heat gently over low heat, stirring until well combined.
  5. Brush with Glaze:

  6. Serve:
    • Arrange the corn on a serving plate. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
