CHILI LIME CORN ON THE COB
Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine butter, lime zest and juice, chili powder, garlic and salt and pepper and set aside.
- Carefully peel back husk from the ear, without detaching from the bottom, remove silk from corn, fold the husk back around the ears and soak in water for 30 to 45 minutes. Make sure to weigh down the ears so that they are fully submerged.
- Preheat a grill to medium, indirect heat. Remove ears from water, drain, open husk, dry ears with paper towel and spread butter mixture evenly on corn. Fold husk back over corn and grill, turning often, for 35 minutes (change heat to medium-high for the last ten minutes of grilling). Serve immediately.
ROASTED CORN WITH CHILI LIME BUTTER
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

- While the corn is roasting, combine the butter with the chili powder and lime zest.
- Peel down the husks and tie in a knot to use as a handle while eating. Rub the corn with soft butter mixture, and garnish with a lime wedge. (This roasting method produces the sweetest corn I have ever tasted.)
CREAMY CHILI-LIME CORN
This irresistible side is inspired by Mexican esquites-the popular street food of roasted corn tossed with lime, chiles and cheese. We seasoned the corn with chili powder and garlic, and then tossed with yogurt in place of Mexican crema.

Steps:
- Whisk together the cilantro, yogurt, lime zest and juice, 1 teaspoon water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Pat the corn dry with paper towels and toss with the chili powder and garlic in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the foam subsides, add the corn and cook undisturbed until it starts to brown slightly in some spots, about 2 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lime-yogurt mixture, 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a serving dish and top with cilantro, the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan and a sprinkle of chili powder.

SAUTEED CORN ON THE COB WITH CHILI-LIME-CILANTRO SPREAD
For simplicity, keep it on the cob. To make it special, cook it twice: first in the microwave, then in a skillet till the ears turn golden-brown. Instead of butter, pass this chili-lime-cilantro sour cream. Unlike butter, sour cream adheres to the kernels, and its rich tartness is a pleasant contrast to the sweet corn.
