Southwestern Grilled Corn on the Cob

From Don Goates , About.com Guest

Pack great southwestern flavors under the husks of these corn cobs and then grill. You get delicious corn which is sure to please your guests.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 12 ears of corn
  • cumin (or comino)
  • chili powder
  • light sprinkling of salt, if desired
  • a little black pepper (or red for the bold!)
  • grated lime peel, using the fine portion of the grater
  • butter

Preparation:

Prepare the corn by pulling back the husks and removing the silk. Apply softened butter and then make a "Southwest" style corn by liberally sprinkling the following, after the butter rub. Return the husks to the proper position, secure and roast until just done. The combined spices (especially the lime and cumin) make for an unusual but wonderful Southwest style flavor.
