Grilled Corn with Chipotle Lime Butter and Cojita

August 11, 2015・Bill Harris・Leave a Comment

When I was a kid, I loved watching plants grow. I always enjoyed going to my grandparents’ garden and seeing all the vegetables maturing. I was fascinated by a germinating seed that ultimately produced food I would eat.

One summer I wanted to take ownership of a plant that I could nurse to maturity, so my grandmother helped me plant a corn kernel in her back yard. Over the next several weeks, I couldn’t wait to drop by her house to see how my corn stalk was progressing. Ultimately, the corn grew to five or six feet, but I didn’t consider that a corn stalk growing in isolation probably wouldn’t be well-pollinated. The resulting two cobs of corn were snaggle-toothed with only a handful of kernels. Notwithstanding the poor yield, it was a fun experiment!

Corn is plentiful this time of year and my farmer’s market stocks an abundance of white, yellow, and bi-color varieties. Most times I prefer white corn, but when I can find the sweet bi-color variety, I always opt for it. There’s no wrong way to eat corn, but grilling it is super quick, and the charred kernels produce delicious flavor.

If you’re looking for an easy side for your next cookout, this recipe takes minutes to make. The compound butter with chipotle, lime, and cilantro adds a kick and takes this ordinary vegetable to another level. The cojita adds just the right amount of salty richness.
