Preparation steps

1.
Prepare grill for direct grilling and preheat to high.
2.
Wash and slit the chili pepper lengthwise, remove seeds and finely chop.
3.
In a small bowl, combine chopped chili pepper, grated lime peel, lime juice, cilantro and butter. Mix well until mixture is smooth and creamy.
4.
Remove the outer husks from the corn. Pull back the inner husks, leaving the husk attached to the end of the corn cob and remove any corn silk.
5.
Lightly brush each ear of corn with the butter mixture and arrange on the hot grill grate, positioning the corn so that the husks are away from the fire. Grill the corn until the kernels are lightly browned all over, about 8 to 12 minutes total, turning each ear as necessary. Brush with remaining butter mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
