Ingredients

The following ingredients have 7 Servings
  • 4 tablespoons (2 oz) salted butter
  • Grated zest of 1 lime (about 1 teaspoon) (preferably organic)
  • 1 chipotle chile in adobo (see note above) (minced, or more to taste)
  • 6 to 8 corn cobs (husks removed)
  • Sea salt
  • Lime wedges (for serving (optional))

Instruction

  • Preheat your grill on medium or place a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan or a microwave, add the grated lime zest and chipotle chile in adobo, and mix together.
  • Using long-handled tongs, place the corn on your grill or grill pan. Brush the corn with half the chipotle butter and cook, turning every few minutes, until nicely colored on all sides.
  • Remove the corn from the heat, generously brush each ear with the remaining butter, and season with salt. Pile the corn onto a platter and serve with lime wedges for squeezing, if desired.
