22 Aug Chili Lime BBQ Corn on the Cob
- 6 Cobs of Sweet Corn (in the husks)
- 1/4 Cup butter (softened to room temperature)
- 1 Tbsp fresh Chives (chopped)
- 1 Tbsp Shallots (chopped in a fine dice)
- 1/2 Tbsp Jalapeño (fine dice)
- 1/2 Lime (zested)
- 1/2 Lime (juiced)
- 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
- Lime wedges for serving.
- Remove the 1st couple of layers of darker green husks from the corn, leaving the lighter / protective inner layers.
- Gently peel back the inner layers of the corn (but leave attached), and remove the silk.
