½cupMexican Cremaor mayonnaise, divided by 1 tablespoon
½cupCotija /Queso Fresco / Feta Cheese
Cayenne Pepper or Chili Powder
2tablespoonsfresh cilantrominced
1limecut in 6 wedges
Instructions
Preheat the grill to high heat. While the grill heats up, shuck your ears of corn. Then, reduce the heat to low, clean the grill grates, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Place the corn on the grill and cook for 15-20 minutes. Turning every 5 minutes or so to prevent burning. You'll notice that the color of the corn will start to turn a deeper shade of yellow (if you are cooking yellow corn).
Once the corn is cooked, remove from the grill and place on a tray. Pour the Mexican Crema over the ears of corn. Then, sprinkle on the cotija cheese (*or place in a dish and roll the cotija on the corn). Sprinkle cayenne pepper (or chili powder for a less spicy version) on the corn on the cob.
Lastly, sprinkle a little fresh minced cilantro on to the corn. Serve each corn on the cob with a wedge of lime to be squeezed on top of the corn. Enjoy immediately!
Notes
These are an amazing light lunch, maybe with chips and watermelon salsa. It's also the perfect side dish for tacos or enchiladas.
