Ingredients
5 ears of sweet corn2 tbsp olive oiljuice of 1 lime1/2 tsp salt1/2 tsp chili powder (optional)
Directions
Remove husks and silk from corn. (some people like to put the husks back around the corn and tie it or wrap it in foil, I like the corn a little charred so I leave it off) Mix olive oil, lime juice, salt and chili powder together and brush on ears of corn.

Put on hot grill, turning often, for about 20 - 30 minutes (30 if husks are left on). and then enjoy! Lot's of different spices can be added to the olive oil to change this up. You can also add parmesan cheese if desired. This is a very flexible recipe. It is also good roasted in the oven when it is too cold to grill!

    I use grape seed oil to cook. It has no cholesterol. Wildtree Herbs and Oils have a butter flavored GS oil. I bet this would be awesome cooked with that. - 7/24/11

    It took longer to cook than 30 min with husks on but it did turn out very good! I added garlic salt to the mix. I liked the hint of lime too. - 1/20/10
