Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Select and Clean Corn

    Choose three fresh ears of corn. Make sure the husks are green and moist, and the kernels are plump and milky. Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn, rinsing them under cold water to remove any dirt.

  2. 2

    Boil the Corn

    Fill a large pot with water and add a bit of salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, carefully add the cleaned corn on the cob. Boil for about 7-10 minutes until the corn is tender but still crisp.

  3. 3

    Prepare Butter and Seasoning

    In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with salt, black pepper, and chili powder until well combined. Set aside.

Serving

  1. 4

    Drain and Serve

    Once the corn is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot with tongs and let it drain briefly. Place each ear of corn on a plate.

  2. 5

    Add Butter and Lime

    Generously spread the seasoned butter over each ear of corn. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over the corn for added flavor.

  3. 6

    Enjoy

    Enjoy your delicious corn on the cob while it’s still warm!
