Grilled Corn with Lime-Cilantro Butter



8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
12 ears fresh corn, shucked

1. Combine the butter, lime juice, lime zest, sugar, salt, and cilantro in a medium bowl and mix well.
2. Grill the corn on a medium-hot grill for 10 minutes, turning occasionally.
3. Transfer the lime-cilantro butter to a serving bowl and serve with the corn.
Note: Before grilling the corn, soak the unshucked corn in water. The heat will dry the silk, which will come off when you peel off the husks. Use a paper towel to rub off any remaining corn silk.
