Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you don't have access to a grill, set your oven to preheat at 400°F (200°C).
Husk the corn, removing all silk threads. Rinse the corn under cold water to clean.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, chipotle powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Brush the marinade over each ear of corn, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the corn on the preheated grill or on a baking sheet if using the oven.
Grill the corn for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking, until the corn is tender and slightly charred in spots. If using an oven, bake for approximately 15 minutes, turning once halfway through.
While the corn is cooking, chop the fresh cilantro and cut the lime into wedges.
Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it cool for a minute.
Squeeze lime juice over the corn and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
