Grilled Corn with Paprika Lime Butter

Grilled Corn with Paprika-Lime Butter was the tart, juicy side to Cheesy Jalapeno Baked Stuffed Chicken for Andy and my second anniversary.  It is a lot like my Chili-Lime Corn, but the cilantro gives it a lighter, airy taste.  I feel like this one would go great with any sort of Mexican dish like fajitas, maybe... I'll have to pair it up soon and taste for myself!
