Clean a bunch of handful of cilantro, making sure to wash out any dirt from the stem ends.
Slice the stems into small pieces, so they match the size of the corn kernels. Add to the bowl with the corn.
- Save the cilantro leaves for garnish or another use.
Add the smoked paprika (and/or the chili powder for a spicy version) to the corn and stir everything together.
Lastly, add the juice from 1/2 of a lime to start and a generous sprinkle of salt. Taste and adjust with more lime, salt, or spices as needed. Set aside.
