CORN COOKED IN HUSKS ON THE GRILL WITH CHILE-LIME BUTTER
Simple and delicious. This is a nice twist on grilled corn-on-the-cob because it includes a chilie-lime butter. The butter can be made up to 2 days ahead, covered and refrigerated. Just bring it back to room temperature before brushing on the corn. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Pull the husks back from the corn and remove the silks.
- Pull the husks back into place around the corn.
- Soak the ears in warm water for at least 30 minutes.
- For the Chilie-Lime Butter:.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, chilie powder, lime juice, salt and pepper.
- Preheat the grill.
- Remove the corn from the water and pat dry.
- Gently peel the husks back from the corn and brush the corn with the butter.
- Pull the husks back around the corn and tie with a piece of husk or kitchen string to keep the husks around the corn.
- When the grill is hot, place the cobs on the rack and cook until the kernels are tender and lightly browned, about 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
- The outer husks will burn, but the inner layers will protect the corn.
- Remove the husks and serve immediately.
- Pass additional chilie-lime butter.
SCALLION BUTTER
This butter recipe is one of two I am posting. It is recommended that this butter be brushed on lobster tails while cooking on the grill. The lobster tail should be butterfly cut, by cutting lengthwise through the tops of the shells, through the meat, but not through the bottom shell. Then press the halves apart with the fingers, do not break through the bottom shell. I believe that this could be used with the seafood of your choice, especially shrimp.

Steps:

- Pull back husk and remove silk strands from corn. Brush corn with butter sauce and then bring husk back over ears.
- Grill corn 5" from heat for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve with remaining butter sauce.
- ALTERNATIVELY, you can bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 350°F Place 1 rack below the center and put a baking sheet on it. Place the other rack in the center of oven and place cobs on that rack, directly above the cookie sheet rack (to catch the drippings).
