Ingredients

• 4 pieces ears of corn, husks removed
• 2 pieces jalapeño peppers
• 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Brush the ears of corn with olive oil and set them aside.

Step 3

Place the jalapeño peppers directly on the grill and roast them for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is blistered and charred.

Step 4

Once the jalapeños are charred, remove them from the grill and place them in a small bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the peppers steam for 5 minutes, which will make it easier to peel off the skin.

Step 5

While the jalapeños are steaming, place the ears of corn on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and tender.

Step 6

Peel and deseed the jalapeños, then finely chop them.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, roasted jalapeños, lime juice, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 8

Once the corn is done grilling, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

Step 9

Spread the roasted jalapeño butter generously over the hot grilled corn.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy!
