Grilled Mexican Corn

Mexican Grilled CornGrilled corn, or elote, is a popular street food in many parts of Mexico. Ears of grilled corn are slathered with a creamy chili sauce and sprinkled with cotija cheese. The recipe is easy and ready in about 25 minutes.

2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons plain non-fat yogurt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
4 ears corn, husks removed
1 lime, halved for juicing
4 tablespoons grated cotija or Parmesan cheese
2 limes, quartered for garnish
 

Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, add mayonnaise, yogurt and chili powder and stir to combine well.
  3. Grill corn, turning occasionally to ensure they cook evenly, until slightly charred and tender. Remove from grill.
  4. While the corn is still warm, spread each ear with 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise mix. Squeeze lime juice over the ears of corn and sprinkle with cheese. Serve with lime wedges.
