In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients. Use immediately as instructed below or store for up to 2 weeks; it may be stored longer if leaving out the Parmesan.
2 Tablespoons Chili Powder, 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder, 3 Tablespoons Parmesan Cheese, 1 Tablespoon Chipotle Powder, 1 Tablespoon Dried Cilantro, 1 Tablespoon Paprika, 1 Tablespoon Cane Sugar, 1 teaspoon Flake Sea Salt, 1 Tablespoon Lime Zest
Cook corn to your preference, then season with the spice mixture. For added richness, use a little butter. You can also stir it into a bowl of shaved corn!

I recommend grilling or roasting the corn. Grilling it without the husk is ideal for those delicious grill marks!

You can leave out the cilantro if you don't like it; it will still taste delicious!

This recipe is great for sprucing up leftover corn on the cob! Just reheat the corn in the microwave or oven, then add the seasoning.

Looking for more uses? Mix this seasoning into eggs, spread it on avocado toast, or slather it on roasted veggies! I also love to use it as a zesty popcorn seasoning.
Use about 2 teaspoons per 1 cob of corn.
