Grilled corn on the cob brushed with a flavorful chili-lime butter.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ears of corn, husked
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • Lime wedges for serving (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. Stir in the fresh lime juice.
  3. Grill the husked corn directly on the grates, turning occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, or until the kernels are tender and slightly charred.
  4. Remove the grilled corn from the grill.
  5. Brush each ear of corn generously with the chili-lime butter.
  6. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can soak the corn in water for 15 minutes before grilling to prevent it from drying out.
  • Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preferred spice level.
  • This butter can also be used on other grilled vegetables or proteins.
