Instructions

Preheat your barbecue grill or griddle pan over high heat.
Remove the outer husk layers from each corn cob, leaving one layer intact and pulling out the silk threads.
Blanch the prepared corn in boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain and let cool slightly.
Peel back the husks without removing them completely. Lightly spray each cob with sunflower oil and rub with cajun seasoning and smoked paprika.
Grill the seasoned corn for about 10 minutes, turning regularly until tender and charred.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for added zest.
