Olathe Chili-Lime Corn

This recipe is fantastic....right now I am choosing to use Olathe sweet corn, it is from Olathe, Colorado - so right now it is in season and the best corn you will ever put in your mouth! But of course depending on where you live you can use whatever corn you desire.

4 ears of corn, husked
1 tablespoon of light olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice, if you have fresh that is great - if not use what you have
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt

Turn your grill on medium to medium/high heat
Lightly brush each ear of corn with the olive oil
In a bowl, stir together lime juice, lime zest, chili powder and salt - brush over each ear of corn
Put the corn on the grill, I do about 10 minutes on each side, we like it lightly charred but tender.

This is great as a side dish for mexican food or just if you are doing a variety of items on the grill.

Enjoy!
