Provided by lazyme

Categories     Corn

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 jalapeno peppers
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon lime peel, grated
6 ears corn on the cob, unhusked

Steps:

  • Prepare barbecue (high heat).
  • Grill chiles until charred on all sides.
  • Cool 5 minutes.
  • Using small paring knife, peel chiles.
  • Scrape out seeds and pale membranes; discard.
  • Coarsely chop chiles; transfer to processor.
  • Add butter, garlic, and lime peel; process until smooth.
  • Season jalapeno-lime butter to taste with salt.
  • Transfer to small bowl. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.)
  • Grill corn until husks are blackened on all sides, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes.
  • Wearing oven mitts to protect hands, remove husks and silk from corn.
  • Serve immediately with jalapeno-lime butter and salt.

Tips:

  • Select the Freshest Corn: Choose corn with bright green husks that are tightly wrapped around the cob. The silks should be moist and brown, not dried out or black.
  • Remove the Husks and Silks: Peel back the husks and remove the silks. Be careful not to cut into the kernels.
  • Soak the Corn: Soaking the corn in cold water for 30 minutes before grilling helps prevent the kernels from drying out.
  • Brush with Oil: Brush the corn with olive oil or melted butter before grilling. This helps the corn kernels brown and prevents them from sticking to the grill grates.
  • Grill Over Medium Heat: Grill the corn over medium heat, turning it occasionally, until the kernels are tender and slightly charred. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
  • Make the Lime Butter: While the corn is grilling, make the lime butter by combining softened butter, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in a bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Serve Immediately: Serve the grilled corn with the lime butter while it is still hot. You can also sprinkle with additional cilantro or chili powder for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Grilled corn on the cob with lime butter is a delicious and easy summer dish that is perfect for cookouts and potlucks. With its sweet and smoky flavor, tender kernels, and zesty lime butter, this recipe is sure to be a hit. So fire up your grill and enjoy the taste of summer with this flavorful dish!
