Loaded Street Corn

Ingredients

• 4 Corn on the cob (shucked and cleaned)
• 4 tbsp Butter (melted)
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp Sour cream
• Chili powder (to taste)
• Garlic powder (to taste)
• Onion powder (to taste)
• 0.5 cup Cotija cheese (crumbled)
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 1 Lime (cut into wedges for serving)

Steps

1. 1

   Boil or grill the corn on the cob until the kernels are tender and slightly charred if grilling, about 10-15 minutes.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, mayonnaise, and sour cream until smooth.

3. 3

   Brush the creamy butter mixture generously over all sides of the warm corn cobs.

4. 4

   Dust the corn with chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.

5. 5

   Roll the seasoned corn in the crumbled Cotija cheese until well-coated.

6. 6

   Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

For a spicier version, add a dash of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika. If Cotija cheese is unavailable, Feta cheese makes a suitable salty substitute.
