Grilled Corn on the Cob with Ancho Chili-Lime Butter

Preheat grill to medium-high heat. In a food processor, purée butter, lime juice, chili powder, salt, pepper, and garlic until smooth.

Spread 1 tablespoon of the prepared butter on each ear of corn (reserve remaining), then arrange each on a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil and wrap snugly. Arrange foil packages on the grill and cook, flipping once, until corn is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. (Check for doneness by carefully opening one package to see if corn is soft and tender.)

Remove and discard foil, then transfer corn to a platter. Serve with remaining chili-lime butter on the side.
