  • 1 teaspoon tequila
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice

  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro, roughly chopped

      Directions

      1. Grill corn in husk over medium fire until for approximately 20 minutes (or until kernels are soft), turning often.
      2. While corn is cooling, add butter, tequila, lime juice, sugar, salt and cilantro in a small bowl. Mix to combine. Set aside.
      3. Once corn is cool enough to handle, pull back husks and remove silk.
      4. Brush butter mixture onto corn using a silicone brush.

      Ingredientes

      • 4 mazorcas frescas de maíz en su chala
      • 4 cucharadas de mantequilla sin sal – ablandada
      • 1 cucharadita de tequila
      • 1/2 cucharadita de jugo de lima fresco

      1. Ase el maíz a la parrilla en su chala a fuego medio durante aproximadamente 20 minutos (o hasta que los granos estén blandos), girando a menudo.
      2. Mientras el maíz se enfría, agregue la mantequilla, la tequila, el jugo de lima, el azúcar, la sal y el cilantro en un tazón pequeño. Mezcle para combinar. Ponga a un lado.
      3. Una vez que el maíz esté lo suficientemente frío como para ser manejado, pele las chalas y retire las barbas.
      4. Aplique la mezcla de mantequilla sobre el maíz utilizando un pincel de silicona.

            Nota: Agregue una pizca de chile en polvo a la mantequilla para un poco de picante.
