Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves: 6

Ingredients

6 ears of corn

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons lime juice

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

2. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix until well blended.

3. Peel back the husks of the corn without removing them entirely and remove the silk. Rub the spicy butter mixture generously over each ear of corn.

4. Fold the husks back over the corn and secure with kitchen twine.

5. Place the corn on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is charred and tender.

6. Remove the corn from the grill and let it cool slightly. Peel back the husks and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.

Storage

Store leftover corn wrapped in aluminum foil or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheating

To reheat, place the corn in the oven preheated to 350°F for 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
