Flavored Butter 3 Ways



 Chili Lime Butter

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon chili powder


In medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well.


Green Chile Butter


1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons chopped green chile
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt


In medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well.


Parmesan Cheese Butter


1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt


In medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix well.


We were invited to our friends house to grill out.  I was responsible for bringing the corn on the cob.  I write cookbooks, I can't just take plain old corn on the cob.  As I pondered different ways to make grilled corn special, I decided simple is better when it comes to feeding a crowd.


We live in New Mexico, so I made two flavored butters that had a bit of a Mexican flair to them.  The Parmesan cheese butter, is a simple flavor combination that pleased even the picky eaters at the cook out.
