4 fresh ears of corn, husked
2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup sour cream or Mexican crema
½ tsp chili powder
¼ tsp smoked paprika
Juice of 1 lime
½ cup crumbled cotija cheese (or feta)
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Extra lime wedges, for serving
Prepare the Corn: Brush each ear of corn lightly with olive oil or melted butter to prevent sticking and add flavor.
Grill the Corn: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill the corn for about 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly charred all over.
Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, and smoked paprika until smooth.
Dress the Corn: Once grilled, brush each ear of corn generously with the creamy sauce.
Top It Off: Sprinkle with crumbled cotija cheese, fresh cilantro, and an extra dash of chili powder if you like it spicier.
Serve & Enjoy: Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra squeeze of brightness.
