Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons chili powder
- 0.75 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 whole lime
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Shuck the corn, removing the husks and silk. Rinse the corn under cold water and pat dry with a clean towel.
Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Place the corn on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure the corn chars evenly. The kernels should develop a light char but still remain crunchy and juicy.
While the corn is grilling, melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Stir in the garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Once the corn is grilled, remove it from the heat and brush it generously with the spiced butter mixture, ensuring each ear is evenly coated.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the corn for a fresh, tangy finish.
If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro over the top for added flavor and garnish.
Serve immediately while the corn is warm, and enjoy your Super Corn!
