Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh corn kernels
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta or cotija cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Instructions

  • Prepare the Corn: If using fresh corn, husk it and remove the kernels. If using frozen corn, thaw it.
  • Cook the Corn: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the corn. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until heated through and slightly charred. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Make the Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Combine: Once the corn is cooled, add it to the bowl with the dressing, followed by the crumbled feta or cotija and chopped cilantro. Gently fold everything to combine.
  • Taste and Adjust: Sample your salad and adjust seasoning with more lime juice, salt, or chili powder as needed.
  • Chill: For optimal flavor, chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish and Serve: When ready to serve, garnish with additional cheese and cilantro, and enjoy!
