Mexican Grilled Corn
I consider this to be the greatest corn-on-the-cob recipe of all time. The way the mild, subtly salted cheese works with an ancho-lime mayonnaise, along with that buttery, smoky corn, is a magnificent combination of flavors. Perfecto!
π Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, ancho chile powder, and smoked paprika in a bowl; whisk until smooth.
Refrigerate until needed.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Boil corn in the salted water for 5 minutes.
Drain the corn.
Place ears of corn on hot grill and cook until the kernels begin to brown and caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes.
Turn the corn and continue to cook, turning ears after 1 to 2 minutes, until they are browned with slightly charred, caramelized spots.
Generously brush corn with melted butter and ancho-lime mayonnaise until kernels are coated.
Sprinkle ears with Cotija cheese and salt.
Garnish with slices of lime.
