Mexican Street Corn - Elote

Grill/Smoker • Vegetable
Serving size: 8
Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • 6-8 Ears of Corn (husked)
  • Mexican Crema (found in your local grocery store by the cheeses or Mayonnaise)
  • Cotija Cheese (Again, over by the cheese section)
  • Chili Powder or Smoked Paprika
  • 2 Limes
  • Fresh Cilantro (chopped)

Directions

  • 1. Heat a grill to medium-high heat and add the corn.
  • 2. There is no need to add salt as the cotija cheese is salty.
  • 3. Grill on each side for a few minutes until some of the kernals begin to look darker, and a little charred, as pictured above.
  • 4. Remove from the grill and immediately spread the mexican crema all over the corn.
  • 5. Sprinkle lightly with cotija cheese, chili powder and lime juice.
  • 6. Top with a little bit of the fresh cilantro and enjoy.
  • 7. Best eaten hot off the grill, so be careful not to burn yourself.
