Ingredients

  • 1 1/2  tablespoons  butter, melted
  • 1/4  teaspoon  grated lime rind
  • 1 1/2  tablespoons  fresh lime juice
  • 1/4  teaspoon  salt
  • 1/4  teaspoon  ground red pepper
  • 8  ears shucked corn
  • Cooking spray

Preparation

Prepare grill or broiler.

Combine butter, rind, juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Place corn on grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Cook 10 minutes, turning frequently. Remove from heat; brush corn with butter mixture.
