Corn on the cob

Corn on the cob is a culinary term used for a cooked ear of freshly picked maize from a cultivar of sweet corn. Sweet corn is the most common variety of maize eaten directly off the cob

Instructions

  1. Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil over high heat.
  2. Add the corn to the boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender and bright yellow.
  3. While the corn is cooking, mix together the softened butter, salt, black pepper, lime juice, and chili powder in a small bowl until well combined.
  4. Once the corn is cooked, use tongs to remove it from the water and let it drain on a paper towel.
  5. While the corn is still warm, spread the prepared butter mixture evenly over each ear of corn.
  6. Sprinkle the buttered corn with chopped cilantro and grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Serve the corn immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
