Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tbl butter, softened
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp grated lime peel
1 tsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp fresh jalapeno, minced (or to taste)
Pinch of salt
6 ears corn on the cob in the husks

Steps:

Place the butter in a small bowl, add the chili powder, lime peel and lime juice, jalapeno and salt. Mix well. Shape the butter into any form you like, cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Heat grill to medium-high. Place corn (in husk) on grill, rotating the corn as you cook on all sides, for approximately 15 mins total. Remove from grill and cool slightly (so you are able to peel the husk). Place the corn back on grill over the same flme for about 4 mins, once again rotating the corn for even grill marks. Serve the corn immediately with the chili lime butter. Cooking options: Place the corn (in the husk) on a plate and microwave for about 5 mins. (2 1/2 mins per side). When ready to grill, remove the husks and grill over a medium-high flame for about 2 mins per side.
