Instructions

    1
    Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 12 (10x10-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. In 1-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is tender.

    Place frozen ear of corn in center of each sheet of foil. Drizzle butter mixture evenly over corn. Fold foil over corn so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again.
