Description
Enjoy the vibrant flavors of Mexican Street Corn, featuring grilled corn slathered in a creamy mixture topped with cotija cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears of corn, husked
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup crumbled cotija cheese
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- Salt to taste
- Chopped cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Heat your grill to medium-high. Place the husked corn directly on the grill, turning occasionally, until charred on all sides—this should take about 10 minutes.
- Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mix until well incorporated.
- Spread the creamy mixture all over the hot corn.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of crumbled cotija cheese over the corn.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
If using frozen corn, roast until cooked through and slightly charred. For a vegan option, use vegan mayonnaise and sour cream, and nutritional yeast instead of cotija cheese.
