Street Corn

 It took me a long time to finally try this, because I love fresh corn on the cob with just butter and salt as God intended it to be.  lol   

Once I tried it, I was like why didn't I try this before now.  

STREET CORN 

(makes 6)

Ingredients:

*6 ears of corn (best when the corn is fresh).

*6 tablespoons mayonnaise 

*1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

*1 cup cotija cheese (can use fresh parmesan cheese if you can't find cotija)

*1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped small

*1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder (if you don't like things spicy hen use chili powder)

*1-2 limes

Directions:

~Preheat oven to 350 degrees (or preheat grill to medium heat).

~Place corn directly on oven rack.

~Bake with husks still on for 35-40 minutes or until fork tender (if cooking on grill cook for 20-30 minutes or until fork tender, turning every 5 minutes.

~In a small bowl, combine garlic powder and mayonnaise (I do this before I cook the corn).

~When corn is done, carefully remove husk and any remain silk.

~Brush corn with garlic mayo.

~Roll into cotija cheese.

~Sprinkle desired amount of chipotle chili powder over corn (don't forget it's spicy).

~Sprinkle fresh cilantro over corn.

~Squeeze desired amount of lime juice over corn.
