Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears of corn, husked and silks removed
- 2 tablespoons butter or oil
- Salt, to taste

- Lime, for squeezing (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat and brush with butter or oil.
- Place the corn cobs in the skillet, whole or cut to fit.

Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding spices like smoked paprika or feta cheese. Don’t overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming.
