Grilled Corn With Chile Lime Salt Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Cream butter in a bowl until smooth; mix in cilantro, lime juice, and cayenne pepper until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors.
• Peel husks back from ears of corn starting at the top, leaving the husks attached at the bottom of the ears. Remove all the corn silk and close husks over the ears again. Cover corn ears with cold water in a large bowl until husks are thoroughly soaked, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place the corn in husks onto the hot grate and grill covered until husks are charred and the corn kernels are tender, 20 to 25 minutes, turning often. Strip off husks and serve corn with cilantro lime butter.

Steps:

• Heat your grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, zest of 1 lime, chile powder, salt and pepper.
• Slather hot corn with mayonnaise mixture and sprinkle with cheese and cilantro. Cut limes into wedges and serve alongside corn.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, mix all ingredients except corn.
• Remove large outer husks from each ear of corn; gently pull back inner husks and remove silk. Spread each ear of corn with about 2 teaspoons butter mixture; reserve remaining butter mixture. Pull husks up over ears.
• Place corn on grill. Cook uncovered over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning frequently, until tender. Let stand 5 minutes. Serve corn with remaining butter mixture.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly brush hot grill with oil. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until kernels are tender and charred in spots, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer corn to a serving platter and serve with lime wedges, salt, and chile powder.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Finely zest limes onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons salt over zest; combine with your hands. Spread mixture into an even layer and bake until dried, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely, then stir in chile powder. Chile-lime salt can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 weeks.
• Peel back corn husks toward stem ends; remove silks. Rewrap husks and tie with long pieces of husk or twine. Soak corn in a large bowl of water 30 minutes.
• Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning, until steamed through and charred in places, 12 to 15 minutes. To serve, unwrap husks, brush each ear with butter, sprinkle with chile-lime salt, and sprinkle with cheese. Garnish with chopped jalapenos and cilantro.

Steps:

• Place the butter in a small bowl, add the chili powder, lime peel, lime juice, jalapeño and salt and mix well.
• Shape the butter into any form you like, cover and place in the refrigerator until shortly before ready to serve, at which time allow butter to soften.
• Heat grill to medium-high.
• Place corn (in husk) on the grill, rotating the corn so you cook on all sides, for approximately 15 minutes total.
• Remove from grill and cool slightly (so you are able to peel the husk) and peel. Place corn back on grill over the same flame for about 4 minutes, once again rotating the corn for even grill marks.
• Serve the corn immediately with the chili lime butter.
• Cooking option: Place the corn (in the husk) on a plate and microwave for 5 minutes (21/2 minutes per side); when ready to grill, remove the husks and grill over a medium-high flame for about 2 minutes per side.

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, cover corn with cold water. Soak 30 minutes; drain. Grill corn, covered, over medium heat until tender, turning occasionally, 25-30 minutes. , Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients. Carefully peel back husks; discard silk. Spread butter mixture over corn.

Steps:

• Mix crema mexicana, fresh lime juice, chile powder, and coarse kosher salt in small bowl to blend. DO AHEAD Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
• Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Remove outer husks from corn, leaving inner pale green husks attached. Fold back inner husks; remove corn silk. Sprinkle corn with salt and pepper. Rewrap inner husks around corn. Grill corn until husks are charred and beginning to pull away and corn is tender, turning frequently, about 10 minutes. Grill lime quarters until lightly charred, about 5 minutes.
• Pull husks away from corn to expose kernels. Place corn and lime on platter. Brush corn with crema-lime mixture. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Steps:

• Prepare a coal or gas grill so it's at high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly blackened in spots all over, 5 to 15 minutes. When corn is cool enough to handle, hold one ear upright in a large bowl and, using a sharp knife, cut off the kernels. Discard the cob, then repeat with the other ear. Let cool completely before adding to the finished guacamole.
• Meanwhile, in a large granite mortar and pestle or molcajete (see Tip), combine the onion, chile, cilantro and salt. Pound into a rough paste, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the paste to a large bowl.
• Add the flesh of the avocados and the lime juice. Crush the avocados into a chunky dip using the pestle or the back of a large spoon. Once corn kernels are completely cooled, add them and the Cotija to the large bowl, reserving a little of each for garnish. Fold together the guacamole, corn and cheese, and season to taste with more salt and lime juice. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro, Cotija and corn. Serve immediately with tortilla chips. (Try to eat in one sitting. Leftover guacamole stored in the fridge turns brown quickly.)

Steps:

• Preheat BBQ to medium-high. Husk corn. Soak in water at least 5 minutes before grilling.
• Stir lime juice with chili powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. (We would suggest adding tequilla) Set aside.
• Place cobs on grill, using tongs to turn every 2 minutes until charred, about 10 min total. After each turn, brush the length of the cob with juice mixture. Transer to a platter. Serve when cool enough to handle.
