Spicy Mexican Street Corn


  • Author: Ana Kelly

Description

We’re spicing up Mexican street corn with extra chipotle pepper.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 to 8 ears of sweet corn
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup cilantro, finely minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • ½ tsp chipotle pepper (less for milder taste, more for spicy!)
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • 2 tbsp fresh Lime juice
  • ½ cup queso fresco, crumbled
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Extra lime wedges and cilantro leaves for use at table

Instructions

  1. Whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, garlic, chipotle, lime juice and lime zest. Add more chipotle for a kick. You might want to add a bit of salt and black pepper.
  2. Husk the corn, and grill gently until slightly charred on all sides. Slather the corn with sauce, squeeze the lime wedges over the cobs, and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco and cilantro leaves. Enjoy!
