Grilled Corn with Chipotle & Lime

Grilled corn always brings smiles. This recipe will really impress them and have them licking their fingers!

Ingredients:

• 4 ears white or yellow corn
• ¼ cup More Than Olives Arbosana “Organic” Olive Oil
• ½ lime, juiced
• 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
• 1 ¼ teaspoon coarse salt

Directions:

Remove the outer husks from the ears of corn. Wash the corn to remove the silk strands and pat dry with a towel.  

Place the corn in a shallow pan. Brush each ear of corn with More Than Olives Arbosana “Organic” Extra Virgin Olive Oil on all sides. Sprinkle each ear with chipotle chili powder, salt, and lime juice. Continue to brush the corn with the mixture that settles in the bottom of the pan until the ears are well coated. 

Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the ears of corn on the grill, continuing to turn them as they cook. You want them to char a bit, but not too much, so it is important to watch them closely. Cook them until the kernels begin to soften, about 10-15 minutes. 

Feeling adventurous? Try using other More than Olives flavored Olive Oils in this recipe, such as Garlic, Jalapeno, Basil, or Meyer Lemon. 

If you are not a fan of chipotle chili powder, try one of  Rob’s Smokin’ Rubs for the seasoning.  M.A.T.E, Lemon Pepper or Trainwreck are good choices. Omit the salt from the recipe if using these rubs.
