My Mexican Street Corn is the perfect combination of savory, salty and sweet.
I’m sure you’ve had corn on the cob, but I bet you’ve never had corn taste like this before. This dish has so many great flavors coming together. Grilled corn, salty feta cheese, savory chipotle Greek yogurt & mayonnaise, hot chili flakes and zest of lime juice. I love grilling the corn on the cob on the barbecue for maximum flavor. You can also boil your corn for 3-5 minutes in hot water. Slather on the delicious savory mix and you can’t help but be hooked!
